Lil Wayne cancels tour appearance with Blink-182, says he was kicked out of St. Louis hotel

Lil Wayne skipped an appearance on his joint tour with Blink-182 on Saturday night after claiming he was kicked out of a St. Louis hotel that morning.

Police received a call around 10 a.m. Saturday morning from the Ritz-Carlton about a verbal disturbance between Lil Wayne's entourage and hotel staff, which began over complaints of marijuana smells coming from the rapper's room, Clayton Police Department Public Information Officer and Cpl. Jenny Schwartz told USA TODAY.

The rapper apologized to fans Saturday morning on Twitter, writing he was "kik'd out" of his hotel and therefore wouldn't be performing in St. Louis.

"It's all luv tho," he added.

But Schwartz said the rapper and his party left the hotel voluntarily and were not forced to leave, as his tweet suggested. No legal action has been taken. USA TODAY has reached out to Lil Wayne's representative and the Ritz-Carlton for comment.

Lil Wayne previously raised eyebrows on tour with the pop-punk band this summer when he reportedly walked off a Virginia stage in July midway through a performance.

In the set, he had complained about the show's crowd size.

“Hold on, I just want the people to know, if you’re wondering, please forgive me but I am so not used to performing to a crowd – and there’s not too many – that’s not my swag,” he said, stopping one of his songs. “I’m not sure how long I’m going to be able to do this tour, but make some noise for Blink-182 for including me anyway. This might be my last night, though. Let’s go.”

The rapper later assured fans on Twitter he would not be quitting the tour, tweeting, "yesterday was krazy! But I want all my fans to know I won't be quitting this tour! I'm having too much fun with my bros blink-182."
