A$AP Rocky drops out of iHeartRadio Music Festival 2024 — The Beat 92.5

A$AP Rocky has been forced to withdraw from the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Festival due to illness.

The Fashion Killa rapper was scheduled to perform as part of the spectacle at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada this past weekend.

Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, announced on Instagram Stories on Thursday that he would no longer be able to attend the event due to illness.

“Unfortunately I ended up getting sick and will not be able to perform at the @iheartfestival. I am so sorry to my fans and grateful to @iheartradio for the opportunity! (sic)” he wrote.

Rocky didn’t give any details about his illness. However, he did tease fans by saying that he planned to perform some of his new songs at the show.

“I’VE BEEN SO EXCITED TO PLAYING NEW MUSIC FOR YOU! ENJOY THE SHOW, THE LINEUP IS (fire emojis),” the 35-year-old added.

Led by Ryan Seacrest, the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Festival will also feature Big Sean, Camila Cabello, Doja Cat, Dua Lipa, Gwen Stefani, Halsey, Hozier, Keith Urban, New Kids on the Block, Paramore, Shaboozey, The Black Crowes and The Weeknd.

Rocky is gearing up to unveil his fourth studio album, Don’t Be Dumb. The album was originally set for release in August, but production issues have pushed it back later in the year.

“LEAKS & SAMPLE CLEARANCES ARE RUINING THE ALBUM. IT’S BEEN 6 YEARS AND I WANT TO MAKE THE BEST ALBUM EVER. I’M SORRY FOR WAITING (sic),” he explained on X last month.
