Rick Ross Bails On Montreal Show For “Personal Reasons,” & Performs In Nashville Instead
Rick Ross appeared to have bailed on a performance in Montreal to instead take the stage in Nashville on Saturday night, after the Mural Festival announced last minute that “personal reasons” prevented Ross from showing up. Despite the explanation, Ross made an appearance at the Blavity House Party Music Festival in Nashville the same night.
“For personal reasons, Rick Ross has made the decision to cancel his performance at the Festival
In the coming days, we will provide a full refund of the daily tickets you purchased or a partial refund of Weekend 2 Passes and Festival Passes if applicable,” the organization said in a statement translated by Google.

When MtlFlex TV shared the news on Instagram, fans posted various theories to explain why Ross decided to perform in Nashville instead. One user wrote: “DJ Akademiks said Rick Ross banned from Canada after dissing Drake.” Another remarked that he “canceled his show because of the law 101 he didn’t want to convert his name in French.” Ross has been feuding with Drake in recent months, even dropping the diss track, “Campagne Moments,” back in April. Drake threw some shots back on his tracks primarily addressed to Kendrick Lamar. Check out Mural Festival’s statement on Instagram below.

The apparent scheduling mishap isn’t the only negative drama Ross has dealt with in recent weeks.
