Lil Baby Cancels String of Shows on Arena Tour


Rapper Lil Baby's North American arena tour gets off to a rought start after the rapper is forced to cancel ten shows...

From Variety
Ahead of Lil Baby‘s “It’s Only Us” tour start date in Texas next week, the Atlanta-based rapper has removed 10 cities from the original 32-stop lineup with little explanation. The Kid Laroi has also been pulled as a supporting act, though GloRilla, Gloss Up, Rylo Rodriguez and Hunxho are still set to perform.
The nationwide arena tour, produced by AG Entertainment Touring and Mammoth, will no longer be hitting Phoenix, San Diego, Las Vegas, Sacramento, Salt Lake City, Denver, Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis and Louisville — all of which were a part of the tour lineup that was announced earlier this year. (Tickets for those dates went on general sale on April 13.)
Lil Baby posted an updated tour schedule on Instagram last week, with the addition of two new dates in Philadelphia on Aug. 29 and New York City on Aug. 30.
Upon closer examination of the ticket sales charts on Ticketmaster.com, venues for pre-existing dates like Memphis (Sept. 7 at FedExForum) and Seattle (Aug. 12 at Climate Pledge Arena) appear to be less than half-sold, while the strongest sales are coming in from Los Angeles, where a majority of seats (not including re-sale tickets) have already been filled.
Lil Baby has been one of the biggest breakout stars of the last five years, with much of that heat centered around his pandemic-era release “My Turn,” a blockbuster that spent five weeks at No. 1, was certified four-times platinum and ended up being the most consumed album of 2020. His solo followup album, “It’s Only Me,” did not generate a similar stream of hit singles, but it debuted at No. 1 last fall on its way to being certified platinum.
Lil Baby will hit the road starting July 26 at the Toyota Center in Houston and is set to conclude the trek on Sept. 22 at the FLA Live Arena in Ft. Lauderdale.
