Chief Keef<\/a> has postponed a hometown Chicago concert that was set to be his first in the city in 14 years. (Although he headlined Lyrical Lemonade both earlier this year and in 2024, that\u2019s technically in Bridgeview, Illinois.) The show, which was scheduled for September 12 at the Huntington Bank Pavilion, will now take place on September 23. The venue announced the decision over social media roughly half an hour before the show was set to begin.<\/p>\n

The date is part of Keef\u2019s tour<\/a> behind his recent Skeletor<\/a> mixtape. According to a statement from Live Nation, the show was postponed due to a travel delay on Keef\u2019s end, which stopped him from arriving in time to perform a full show before the pavilion\u2019s curfew. In an Instagram story, Keef credited his travel woes to a \u201cpilot who got very racist\u201d and allegedly canceled his flight, leaving the Chicago rapper scrambling for transportation. A representative for Chief Keef had no comment on the postponement.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo I ain\u2019t happy, yes I am upset,\u201d Keef wrote in his post. \u201cI know all of you anticipated this just like me … And I’m sincerely sorry that this happened trust me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keef\u2019s tour continues tonight in Minneapolis before stopping in Detroit, Austin, New York, Los Angeles, and more over the coming months. Since dropping Skeletor in April, Keef has shared the one-off Katy Perry collaboration \u201cLegendary Lovers (Save Me)<\/a>,\u201d which announced the end of an old Twitter feud.<\/p>\n
