The Toronto concert curse lives on.

Lil Wayne was set to play at Toronto’s Budweiser Stage tonight (Aug. 11) for his Tha Carter VI tour before the show was unexpectedly postponed.


At around 8 p.m., almost two hours after the doors opened and an hour before the rapper was set to take the stage, Budweiser Stage announced that the show would no longer be taking place in a message displayed onscreen at the venue and posted on its Instagram story.

“Due to unforeseen illness, Wayne’s Toronto show tonight will be postponed," the statement reads.

"As his fans know, he loves putting on nothing short of the best performances for those who come out, and he was so excited for this one. Please stay tuned for the new date coming soon.”
