Drake cancels Wireless appearance, Kanye West to headline both days
Drake has confirmed he’s been forced to cancel his slot at this year’s Wireless Festival, with Kanye West now filling in for both days.
Wireless festival takes place this weekend in London and Birmingham, with the following message posted to the Wireless website:
“To my beloved fans, it truly breaks my heart that I won’t be able to perform as planned at Wireless and Roskilde this weekend. I got sick a few days ago and although I am on my way to bouncing back, my doctors have made it clear that I am not physically fit to fly or deliver the performance my fans expect and deserve from me. I will be focused on resting for a quick recovery. I have the best fans in the world and I can’t wait to come back to make more incredible memories together.”
Kanye will play a second consecutive set on Saturday night in London, while Rudimental will fill in for Drake in Birmingham.
