Playboi Carti ​No Longer Opening for​ The Weeknd in Vancouver, Edmonton

Live Nation British Columbia cites "border crossing issues" for the rapper's removal in a statement released ahead of the first Vancouver show tonight (July 15).

It looks like Playboi Carti fans in Canada will have to wait a little longer to see him live.

The promoter apologized for any inconvenience.
