T-Pain’s Tour Canceled Over Poor Ticket Sales: ‘We F*cked Up!!’
T-Pain has revealed that he has canceled his upcoming tour – citing poor ticket sales.
The rapper revealed the news in an Instagram video, speaking directly to his fans:
“Let me just start by saying that my team set up the tour in September… Some corners got cut. Production went missing. I wasn’t as hands-on with the planning and things as I should have been because I’ve been busy as hell,” he began.
I thought since the first 1UP Tour went well and sold out every city, it should be good,” he said. “Having said that, I’m gonna take it upon myself to cancel [the tour]. It just would have been a bad look for me, and it wouldn’t have been entertaining for y’all.”
T-Pain then admitted that he was told to lie about the reasons for canceling the tour:
“I was advised to lie about this and say that I needed some time, or I needed some alone time or me time or some sh*t like that,” he said. “We f*cked up. I’m gonna keep it real with y’all. Most artists lie. Whenever concerts get canceled, or tours get canceled, it’s for low ticket sales.”
