Singer SiR explained why his Toronto concert got cancelled last summer, and it might be because of the drama between Kendrick Lamar and Drake.

SiR is signed to TDE, the former label Kendrick Lamar was under was supposed to perform in Toronto, Drake’s hometown. The show was sold out, but it got cancelled at the last minute. At the time, SiR said he didn’t know why and apologized to fans. During a recent show in Canada, SiR said the real reason might’ve been the beef between Kendrick and Drake. He told the crowd that things got “too close to home” for some people. He said the venue, which is partly owned by Drake, shut it down.

Then, when they tried to book a different place, that venue said no too, because they didn’t want to take the risk.

Another rapper from TDE, Schoolboy Q, said his Toronto show got cancelled too. He posted online that the Canadian police didn’t want anyone from their group performing. He joked that if they really wanted to start trouble, they would’ve already. SiR also joked about how he was in Kendrick’s music video for the Drake diss track “Not Like Us.” He said, “Now I get it, this is kind of funny. I don’t know why Kendrick put me in that video. All I could think about was my show getting cancelled.”

Basically, this rap beef is so petty, it might be messing with concerts now.
