Tensions escalated at DreamCon when streamer Dub, brother of rapper and content creator DDG, physically confronted a heckler who insulted DDG during the event. The situation, first reported by journalist Precious Gibson on June 1, 2025, began when an attendee loudly called DDG “Doo Doo Garbage,” prompting DDG to tell someone off-camera, “Check him.”
Footage from the scene shows DDG and Dub approaching the heckler, who continued taunting them. Dub then intervened physically after the repeated verbal insults. According to the video, members of DDG’s entourage joined the scuffle, with Dub ultimately lifting and slamming the heckler to the ground. Though DDG asked his personal cameraman not to record the altercation, several bystanders captured and shared clips online.
Public reaction to the incident has been divided. Some viewers criticized Dub’s physical response, arguing that verbal insults didn’t warrant violence. Others, however, sympathized with Dub’s desire to protect his brother from public humiliation. The incident has since sparked ongoing conversations on social media regarding the line between defending a loved one and overreacting in public.
Neither DDG nor Dub has released an official statement, and DreamCon organizers have yet to comment on the incident. The altercation continues to fuel debate online, as many await further clarification from those involved.
