Lil Wayne’s appearance Saturday night in South Carolina was cancelled after the rapper refused to go through a security check.
Management at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia said Wayne refused to undergo the venue’s “standard safety procedures.” It said it was not willing to “jeopardize safety” by excluding the rap star from a security inspection.
Cardi B, 2 Chainz and Canada’s Tory Lanez performed as scheduled.
Lil Wayne previously did jail time on a gun possession conviction.
He has not yet commented on the situation.
Fans were reportedly offered refunds.
