ScHoolboy Q had his Toronto concert canceled

ScHoolboy Q earlier went into an uproar against Drake when his sold-out Toronto show scheduled for July 18 got canceled. The show was all set to take place at the venue, History. At the very last moment, the rapper took to X to announce its cancellation and seemingly alleged that it had something to do with him being a part of Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE). He wrote:

"THey just cancelled my sHow in TORONTO 😂… CANADIAN POLICE DONT WANT NOBODY FROM TDE PERFORMING.."

TDE was the record label that Kendrick Lamar was a part of from 2005 to 2022. ScHoolboy Q is still signed to TDE. In a follow-up tweet, the rapper further pointed out how OVO rappers were allowed to rap in California. He wrote:

"TOP was just wit Wayne & Baby smH partynextdoor just Had a sHow @ tHe palladium 🤦🏾‍♂️ if we wanted to get yall we would’ve just did it.. now wHen sumbody get Hurt don’t cry…"

When ScHoolboy's tweet was perceived as a threat, the rapper did a double-take and claimed that he found the situation hilarious and noted how he did not know why Lamar put him in the Not Like Us music video. He followed that up by another tweet, where he stated:

"I neva said “ ima kill sumbody” im saying if we wanted to crack it off we could’ve smH. Rap and move on playin tuff gon get sumbody Hurt it’s all good 😂 ima soccer dad."

In yet another follow-up, ScHoolboy Q apologized to the social media users who took his tweet as a threat. However, to make matters worse, Q's Saturday, July 20 show in Chicago was also canceled. At the time of the show's cancellation, the show's opening act Devin Malik took to Instagram to reveal why the show had been canned due to not getting a flight, courtesy of the recent Microsoft crash.
