ScHoolboy Q Expresses His Displeasure With Blue Lips' First Weekend Show tour is canceled and he believes the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef has something to do with it.
The tour was set to kick off Thursday (July 18) with a sold-out show at History in Toronto, Canada, but on Wednesday night, the TDE rapper claimed the show was canceled due to safety concerns. “They just canceled my show in Toronto,” he tweeted on Wednesday. “Canadian police don't want anyone from TDE to perform.”
Q also mentioned that Kendrick's camp is keeping things under wraps while hinting that Drake — who is from Toronto — and OVO had something to do with the situation. He pointed out that his label boss Top Dawg met Lil Wayne and Baby at the YouTube Leaders & Legends Gala and that OVO artist Partynextdoor had just performed at the Hollywood Palladium. “TOP was just with Wayne & Baby smH,” he tweeted. “Partynextdoor just had a show at the palladium. If we wanted to get all of you, we would.. now when someone gets hurt, don't cry.”
He quickly got over it, though, and laughed at the irony and ridiculousness of it all. “Actually I get it” he wrote on Twitter. “It's okay, this st is low key hilarious. I don't know why Dot put me in this video.
A fan responded to that tweet with a screenshot of ScHoolboy standing stoically in the “Not Like Us” video, in which the rapper poked fun at himself. tweeting“Cancelled is all I could think of.”
History — the venue where ScHoolboy was set to perform — is owned by Live Nation in partnership with Drake.
Advertising sign has reached out to Drake, History as well as Toronto law enforcement for comment.
Rick Ross was attacked after a June 30 show in Vancouver, BC, as he left the stage with “Not Like Us” playing in the background. In 2018, Pusha T was also attacked while performing in Toronto.
Heavy rains and flooding have hit Toronto hard in recent days, leaving 100,000 residents without power. Drake posted a video of himself trying to control the flooding in his mansion to no avail.
Q's next stop is Chicago This Saturday (July 20).
