Canceled Tour Dates

Busta Rhymes Cancels “Blockbusta” Tour, Leaves Ticketholders Confused

by

Busta Rhymes is easily one of the biggest legends in hip-hop. Overall, he was a staple during the 90s as he dropped classic songs and albums. His career has spanned decades, and fans continue to consume his music. Furthermore, he has always shown love to the younger generation. He has refused to become a hating old head, which is certainly admirable. In fact, on his latest album, he did a song with Coi Leray. This just goes to show that when it comes to the new generation, Busta is someone who prefers to pay homage.

On March 13th, Busta Rhymes was set to go to San Francisco for the first date of his Blockbusta tour. This tour was going to be quite short, with the final date in Brooklyn on April 21st. The first show would be a week from today, and fans were excited. However, it seems like the tour has been canceled. According to MSN, Busta Rhymes has not put out a statement about the cancelation. Fans found out about it through Ticketmaster, and it has left many wondering what happened, and if the concert will be rescheduled.

Just last year, Busta Rhymes was on The Final Lap tour with 50 Cent. He has been getting himself in shape, and fans were fond of his performances. Now, it seems like fans are left waiting in limbo as more details emerge. Refunds could very well be on the horizon, and Ticketmaster is encouraging fans to stay up to date on the situation. Hopefully, Busta is doing okay. Moreover, we hope he is able to reschedule and put on the shows he hoped to do.

Gorillaz Cancel Their September U.S. Tour

by

Alternative rock group Gorillaz has been enjoying continued success since the release of their eighth studio album, Cracker Island. Unfortunately, they are canceling their upcoming September 2023 U.S. tour. Citing “scheduling conflicts,” the band, comprised of musician Damon Albarn and visual artist Jamie Hewlett, is no longer coming stateside. The tour was going to highlight Cracker Island at a few U.S. venues. They announced the concerts only a few weeks ago. Now, they’re pulling the plug.

Gorillaz is refunding their fans for the shows, which were going to feature plenty of collaborations. Some of the performers who were going to join included Lil Yachty, Kaytranada, and Remi Wolfe. Back in April, at Coachella, the band was on stage with Bad Bunny and De La Soul, among others. The U.S. venues included arenas in Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, and Austin, TX. Sadly, they will play at zero of those venues for the time being.

Back in 2022, Gorillaz went on a massive World Tour where they debuted plenty of new material from what would end up being the tracklist of Cracker Island. For that tour, they traveled to South America, Europe, Australia, and North America. However, they ran into show cancelations on that tour as well. A scheduled performance in Queensland, Australia, was shut down due to torrential rain. In February of this year, they released a deluxe version of Cracker Island, adding five bonus tracks.

Unluckily, Gorillaz knows plenty about canceling promising projects. Earlier this year, the band paired up with Netflix to produce a movie Albarn and Hewlett had been conceptualizing for a long time. However, due to cutbacks in Netflix’s animation department, the streaming giant scrapped the film. A victim of streaming content saturation, Gorillaz shelved the movie indefinitely. Hopefully, the band can get back out there soon. Perhaps they’ll find another time to grace America with their unique sound in front of thousands of people.
