The Hip-Hop icon was slated to perform as part of his ongoing tour, which is still scheduled to continue on Friday (August 16) in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.
The Toronto cancellation came just days after several of Lil Wayne‘s classic mixtapes—including all three volumes of Da Drought and Dedication—unexpectedly landed on streaming services earlier in August. The surprise drop caused a stir online, but also raised questions about the legitimacy of the uploads.
According to Rolling Stone, a source close to the rapper said the mixtapes were “not legal [or] legitimate uploads.”
As of Tuesday (August 12), no rescheduled date for the Toronto show has been announced.
