ScHoolboy Q’s Canceled Toronto Show Was At Venue Reportedly Ran By Drake & Live Nation

by

ScHoolboy Q’s canceled Toronto show has been the talk of the hip-hop town for the past day or so, and for very good reason. Moreover, there’s a lot of speculation and discourse right now surrounding this situation, especially his claims that Canadian police don’t want anyone from TDE performing. Of course, this is notable thanks to Drake’s Kendrick Lamar beef, with the main conspiracy theory at play being that the West Coast isn’t welcome in the 6ix and that OVO is pulling strings to sabotage them. Furthermore, the Instagram page description of HISTORY, the venue where Q was supposed to perform, says that it’s in collaboration between Live Nation and Drizzy, further fueling this accusation.

Still, this is too vague and unclear to really tell whether or not Drake is responsible for this, but it’s certainly an interesting idea. “THey just cancelled my sHow in TORONTO [crying-laughing emoji]… CANADIAN POLICE DONT WANT NOBODY FROM TDE PERFORMING..” ScHoolboy Q had tweeted. “TOP was just wit Wayne & Baby smH partynextdoor just Had a sHow @ tHe palladium. if we wanted to get yall we would’ve just did it.. now wHen sumbody get Hurt don’t cry… Actually I get it.. Nvm tHis s**t Lokey Hilarious… Iono wHy dot put me in tHat f***ing video.

“cancelled is all I could tHink about,” ScHoolboy Q continued. I don’t tHink u know wHo I am. In fact I do t tHink a lot of u know wHo I am..” “Sending Prayers for Peace and healing. Battle was good. Time to move on,” DJ Akademiks replied to him. “I neva said ‘ ima kill sumbody’ im saying if we wanted to crack it off we could’ve smH,” Q retorted. “Rap and move on playin tuff gon get sumbody Hurt it’s all good ima soccer dad.”

“See I be at soccer games. Ok I’m done til cHicago I’m sorry if y’all took dat as a tHreat and not advice..” ScHoolboy Q concluded. Still, even with this small setback, he thinks that the future is bright for Los Angeles hip-hop, regardless of this battle. We’ll see whether any more details emerge about this Toronto venue situation.

Nicki Minaj Calls Off Her Romania Concert Due To Protests

by

Nicki Minaj has sadly ran into some issues during her European tour this year, though this fortunately isn’t as much of a headache as an arrest. Moreover, she took to social media on Sunday (July 7) to give the saddening news that she chose to cancel her show in Romania that night. Roman cited safety concerts from her security team due to protests in the area, as citizens advocated for a change in the country’s fiscal policies. There’s still no news on whether or not she plans to do another concert in the area to make up for it, but for now, she chose to be safe rather than sorry.

“Out of concern for the well-being of our team and myself, I have been advised by my security detail not to travel to Romania’s festival tonight due to safety concerns regarding protests in the area,” Nicki Minaj shared on Twitter. “I look forward to seeing you all at another time. As a mom, I have to make sure I’m making sound decisions for me to make it home to my son and for my team to make it home to their families.

Nicki Minaj Cancels Romanian Show

“To not heed the advice of security at this time is simply not what I think I should be doing,” Nicki Minaj continued. “I love you and thank you for your understanding and support. I am very excited to see my fans this Friday in London for another very special headlining show at Wireless Festival.” What’s more is that we know she kept herself entertained these days despite this setback, or at least, that’s what fans think. Many believe the Trinidadian MC has made fun of MEGAN‘s first week sales, given her feud with Megan Thee Stallion.

Regardless, hopefully the rest of Nicki Minaj’s year goes more according to plan, and she can continue to connect with fans around the world. She recently resolved an issue with former manager Deb Antney for reaching out to Lil Kim behind her back, and more heartening and conciliatory moments like these would be very welcome. But for Romanian die-hards, hopefully you get another chance soon to see your fav. We know that whenever Gag City comes through, it’s a massive event, so it’ll most likely be worth the wait.

Nicki Minaj Concert Canceled In Manchester After Arrest & Release In Amsterdam

by

Nicki Minaj’s recent arrest in Amsterdam over weed possession, which she insinuated was due to discrimination, resulted in a bigger hiccup than maybe some fans expected. Moreover, the Co-Op, the Manchester, England venue where she scheduled to play on Saturday (May 25) for her Pink Friday 2 world tour, announced that they had to cancel the concert. ” [We have postponed] Nicki Minaj’s scheduled performance at Manchester’s Co-op Live on Saturday 25th May,” the IG announcement read. “Tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled performance which [we will announce] ASAP.

“Despite Nicki’s best efforts to explore every possible avenue to make tonight’s show happen, the events of today have made it impossible,” the statement continued. “We are deeply disappointed by the inconvenience this has caused. More information will be available at your point of purchase.” While Nicki Minaj is already free from Dutch custody, we’d guess that this won’t be the last that we hear from her, her team, or her fans when it comes to this situation. All we can hope for is that the rest of this magnanimous trek proceeds swimmingly and without undeserved and stressful situations.

In other news, at least the Trinidadian MC has some new accolades to celebrate, although all this legal trouble probably dampened the desire to rejoice. Nicki Minaj’s “Bang Bang” with Jessie J and Ariana Grande is now her second Diamond-certified song, speaking to how that track withstood the test of time as a pop banger. Over the next few years, maybe even months, we’ll probably see many more of her biggest hits reach this commercial peak. Maybe it’ll be your favorite, maybe it’ll be one of the 2010s EDM crossovers, and maybe it hasn’t even come out yet.

That’s just how good Nicki Minaj is, just in case the wild success of the Pink Friday 2 world tour didn’t already indicate that. Hopefully fans in Manchester have another opportunity soon to see their fav, and the Co-Op’s announcement indicates that they will reschedule the show as soon as possible. So with that in mind, we’ll see whether the second attempt happens this summer or later this year. In fact, with that second North American leg on the way, maybe she has a chance to hop across the pond real quick.

Lauryn Hill Postpones Philly Show On Advice From Doctors

by

While Ms. Lauryn Hill is a certified rap and R&B legend, she’s developed a reputation for unpredictable live performances. She’s often either showing up hours late to shows or just canceling them entirely. That included an entire planned tour last year where The Fugees planned on reuniting to celebrate the anniversary of their classic album The Score. Lauryn is currently on tour with Fugees again, this time celebrating the 25th anniversary of her landmark solo album The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill.

Hill is about halfway through the tour and the unreliability of her live appearances has popped up again. She was scheduled to play a show in Philadelphia tonight, but just announced on social media that it was delayed. “It is with disappointment that I am writing this note to you. On the advice of my physicians, I have no choice but to postpone the show tomorrow. I need to rest my voice to prevent any more serious strain or damage to my vocal cords,” her statement reads. She goes on to express how enjoyable the tour has been up to this point. The statement concludes by confirming to fans that she will be back next month on November 25. Check out the full statement below.

Lauryn Hill Postpones Philly Show The Day Before

Last month fans who turned up for Lauryn Hill’s Global Citizen Festival performance got a nice surprise. The Fugees also turned up there for another surprise re-uniting that absolutely thrilled fans in attendance. The trio unpacked some of their classic hits like “Killing Me Softly With His Song” and “Ready Or Not” with videos of their performance swirling online.

That isn’t the only festival Lauryn has played this year. Back in June, she took the stage at Essence Festival to headline the shows Friday slot. But as she’s been known to do in the past, she was late to the performance drawing criticism from fans. What do you think of Lauryn Hill postponing her show on the advice of her doctors?

SZA Has To Cancel Toronto Show Due To Illness

by

Earlier today, SZA gave fans expecting to see her in Toronto tonight quite a shock. Because she was having trouble logging into Twitter, she took to Instagram to share that she was sick. “I wanted to let you know got sick after jersey and I’m here in Toronto taking a z pack n hella steroids . My body is semi able but my voice is shot I’m trying my best to make it tonight !!! I really need your support I don’t wanna cancel,” she told fans in her caption. That sparked hundreds of responses from fans debating whether she should reschedule the show or try and push through it.

Even though she was seemingly trying her best to put on a show, ultimately it didn’t work out. Whether it was because she was feeling too bad or because she couldn’t sing, her concert in Toronto was cancelled. In the announcement she promises her fans that she will be back but no immediate rescheduling plan was made public. Check out the official announcement she shared below.

SZA Cancels Toronto Show But Promises To Be Back

Recently, SZA and Drake teamed up for the very first time on a new single. The track was called “Slime You Out” and immediately shot all the way up to the number one spot on the Hot 100. The achievement made her the only artist to find herself at the number one spot on the top 100 this year. BTS member Jung Kook could potentially come for that title if he can debut his new single “3D” with Jack Harlow at the top spot.

Unfortunately it didn’t stick there and fell all the way outside the top 10 to number 12. It isn’t all bad news for SZA though as the song falling allowed her track “Snooze” to rise up to its peak of number 2. Between “Snooze” and “Kill Bill” she’s had two of the biggest hit songs of the year already. What do you think of SZA being forced to cancel her concert due to sickness? Let us know in the comment section below.

Jack Harlow “F***in Sick” About Canceling Vegas Show

by

Jack Harlow has said he feels sick after having to cancel a concert. He expressed his disappointment on Twitter after announcing the cancellation of his Las Vegas show due to an airline issue. The Louisville rapper-turned-actor shared that his plane, which was grounded in Kentucky, was unable to take off. This led to the unfortunate cancellation of the scheduled performance.

In his statement, Harlow conveyed his frustration and regret. The rapper mentioned that it was the first time in his career that he had to miss his own show. Despite efforts to find alternative flights or transportation, the circumstances were beyond his control. He apologized to his fans, expressing his sadness at not being able to deliver the anticipated performance and fulfill their song requests. Jack Harlow, of course, assured that refunds would be provided. Then, he pledged to make it up to every single person who had planned to attend the show.

Harlow “Can’t Jump” On a Flight

In other news, Jack Harlow has been quite active on the acting front recently. Most notably, he appeared in a major role in Hulu’s White Men Can’t Jump. Social media was buzzing with concerns ever since the announcement of the rapper taking on the role originated by Woody Harrelson. People raised doubts about the suitability of the Kentucky native making his acting debut in such an iconic role. However, the release of the initial trailers provided some relief. Now that the film is available on Hulu, fans can judge Harlow’s acting skills for themselves. The new White Men Can’t Jump follows the familiar story of two unlikely friends, one black and one white, bonding over basketball.

In addition to the unexpected appearances by all-star athletes, many viewers seemed at least satisfied by Jack Harlow’s performance. One surprised tweet exclaimed, “Why is Jack Harlow actually acting omg.” Another user chimed in, “The new White Men Can’t Jump is funny asf I can’t lie. Thought the shit was gonna be corny as hell.” However, there are also several individuals who expressed serious dissatisfaction with the project after watching it. One particularly unimpressed viewer vented, “Just watched 30 minutes of the White Men Can’t Jump remake. Y’all are so lucky I don’t have powers because the movie is so bad that I would have destroyed the world.” Regardless, Jack Harlow managed to pull off something not many others could have in their first role. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news on Jack Harlow. Be sure to let us know what you think in the comments!

Lil Wayne Abruptly Ends His Last Tour Stop In Los Angeles

by

Unfortunately, it looks like Lil Wayne’s last “Welcome To Tha Carter” tour stop in Los Angeles brought the trek to a sour close. Moreover, the rapper reportedly showed up late to The Wiltern on Saturday night (May 13), and fans say he had low energy. Still, it seems like the self-proclaimed “best rapper alive” was putting on a solid set for his fans, going through many of his classics. However, the inciting incident came when Weezy took a brief intermission, letting his Young Money artists Lil Twist, Yaj Kader, and Allan Cubas perform. Apparently the crowd’s reaction didn’t please the New Orleans MC, and he wrapped things up early.

“We appreciate it, but we ain’t about to be bending over backwards for these folks,” Lil Wayne expressed when Cubas was about to perform his second song. We work too hard for this shit, we work way too hard. This my motherf***in’ artist Allan, that was Twist, that was Yaj; we are Young Money. We appreciate y’all time.” Given that his team canceled the show’s scheduled livestream, maybe we should’ve known something was up.

Regardless, it’s quite sad to see such a legendary rapper have that reaction during his tour’s last show. Whether you blame Lil Wayne for his actions or the crowd for their seemingly unenthused energy, it’s not a pretty sight. In fact, other issues that the “Welcome To Tha Carter” tour faced seem to have been handled in a more smooth way. For example, he canceled his Atlanta show and let fans know that they would reschedule. In contrast, this seems to be a much more unprompted and tense cancellation.

Obviously, a lot of people expressed anger, disappointment, disbelief, and frustration online. As of writing this article, it seems that the “Kant Nobody” MC has yet to respond to backlash or address the show’s abrupt end in any way. No matter which side you blame or how much you may empathize with Tunechi’s frustration and rights as an artist, this is not the way any anticipated tour should end. Regardless, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Wayne.
