Over on Reddit, people were particularly outraged with the unidentified woman, especially for bringing the baby to a concert considering how noisy they usually are.
"Concerts are way too loud for a baby," one Reddit user wrote, while another said: "OMG my ears hurrrrrt in sympathy with that baby."
And a third shared: "Holy crap. You couldn't get a babysitter."
Another pointed out: "First thing I checked was are there any earplugs on the ears? There aren't. The baby should have real ear protection.
"That baby probably just wants some milk and nothing else, F people who send toddlers to a concert. They have no reason to be there."
While another social media user declared: "Yeah this is completely dumb af for a number of reasons."
Earlier this year it was reported that the 'Right Round' hit-maker charges up to $1 million to play private parties and gigs, performing as many as 30 each year.
The New Yorker published an article about hiring famous musicians for private parties, the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest participant can charge between $150,000 and $300,000 to play a private event in the United States.
The publication asked his lawyer, Reginald Mathis, about the appearances, who said that the rate depends ‘on location, scale, and other particulars’.
While that's an impressive rate on its own, if you want him to travel for an overseas performance, you’re looking at a rate of $1 million.
Mathis said back in May that the musician, real name Tramar Lacel Dillard, recently agreed to perform at a bar mitzvah in Chicago, a performance that was only 30 minutes long, and stipulated ‘private jet travel’ and ‘suitable accommodations’ in the contract.
His fee was reportedly 'in the six figures'.
Flo Rida has sold over 100 million records around the world following the release of his massive hit 'Low' in 2007.
The song, which features T-Pain, peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for 10 weeks and was certified platinum 10 times over.
He’s also had big hits with 2009’s ‘Right Round’ and 2012’s ‘Whistle’.
