Days after Post Malone fell into an open trap door on stage during a live performance in St. Louis, he canceled a show in Boston. Although the singer at the time of the injury had noted that there would not be any show cancelations, he had to be hospitalized for a second time.
Malone was experiencing breathing difficulties and stabbing pains and had to cancel a show that was scheduled to take place in Boston on September 23. The singer, who is currently on his Twelve Carat tour, suffered a rib injury owing to the fall.
In a statement, the singer wrote:
"Today I woke up to cracking sounds on the right side of my body. I felt so good last night, but today it felt so different that it has before. I'm having a very difficult time breathing, and there's like a stabbing pain whenever I breathe or move.”
He further added, noting:
“We’re in the hospital now, but with this pain, I can’t do the show tonight. I’m so f—ing sorry. Everyone’s tickets for tonight’s show will be valid for the reschedule that we’re planning right now. Once again, I’m so f—ing sorry, I love y’all so much. I feel terrible, but I promise I’m going to make this up to you. I love you Boston, I’ll see you soon. I’m so sorry.”

Dre London, who is Malone’s manager, also shared a status update on the rapper's condition on Sunday. Taking to Instagram, he wrote:
"Thank you everyone for all your well wishes! Post Malone didn’t break 3 ribs last nite thank god. We did X-rays (at the) hospital after the show and they declared he had bruised his ribs! In true Posty fashion loving his fans he finished the show! I truly don’t know any artist like him."
