Live Nation issued a statement to UPROXX on behalf of Chief Keef, citing a medical emergency that he needs additional time to recover from.
“To my fans, I’m so sorry to announce this, but due to a medical emergency, I’ve been ordered to stay home to recover, so I have to postpone the tour. Those who bought tickets can opt for a refund or keep it for a future date. I intend to be back on the road soon,” Keef said. “Thank you, I love y’all.”
The Lil Tour featured support from Lil Gnar, who is signed to the Chicago native’s 43B label, along with the Glo Boyz.
