Lil Durk Cancels Several Tour Dates Due To Ongoing Health Issues

Bad news for Lil Durk fans.

The 30-year-old rapper recently canceled several of his “Sorry For The Drought Tour” dates including his scheduled appearance at Rolling Loud Miami on Saturday (July 22).

On Tuesday (July 18), 24 of Lil Durk’s tour dates were marked as canceled on the Ticketmaster website. The only remaining performances include two in the “All My Life” rapper’s hometown of Chicago. As of now, he is still scheduled to perform a solo show at the United Center on Aug. 11, with an appearance at the WGCI Summer Jam on Aug. 12 at the same venue.

DJ Akademiks recently released a statement that seemingly came from Lil Durk, although the emcee has yet to publicly speak out on the matter himself.

The statement reads:

“Since I’m still awaiting to get full clearance from my doctors to travel and perform again, I have no other choice but to cancel my headlining Rolling Loud performance. While I’m home resting, I am looking forward to my two homecoming shows on the 11th & 12th in Chicago. For the rest of the country, I’ll be announcing new dates soon. #StillHealing.”

Reportedly, Lil Durk was hospitalized earlier this month for severe dehydration and exhaustion while in Ohio. He was taken to a hospital on July 6, where doctors reportedly told him his situation was serious. Lil Durk was then forced to cancel performances in Europe as well as a planned appearance at the ESPYs Awards.

The rapper told TMZ,

“My fans mean everything to me, you’re the reason why I do this. I was looking forward to touching all of my European fans, performing this week(end), attending the ESPYs and more but after performing and traveling daily I’ve become severely dehydrated and advised by my doctors not to travel due to exhaustion. Once I get my full energy back, it’s back to business which I’m looking forward to.”

Lil Durk was also hospitalized last year after a pyrotechnic explosion went off right in his face. The incident took place at his 2022 Lollapalooza performance in Chicago. Although he finished his performance, Lil Durk took to Instagram the next day to share a photo from his hospital bed, which showed his eye wrapped in bandages.

Lil Durk wrote,

“Due to the incident that happened at Lollapalooza in Chicago on stage, I’ma take a break & focus on my health. I finished my performance yesterday for my fans. Appreciate y’all.”
