G Herbo Apologizes for Last-Minute Cancellation of Chicago Show With Video Played at Venue

G Herbo was forced to call off a show in his hometown of Chicago on Friday due to travel-related reasons.

As seen in social media-shared footage, including the below rip from The Shade Room, the 25 artist apologized to fans for the last-minute scrapping of the performance via a video statement played for attendees.

“I was excited to come back home. … I’m in the airport,” he said. “I’ve been at the airport for, like, six hours. They kept delaying the flight.” According to Herbo, his travel plans kept getting pushed back due to weather, resulting in an extended annoyance that left him feeling drained.

“Man, basically, I just want to send an apology to my fans,” he added. “As y’all can see, I’m exhausted right now. I don’t even have energy. I been dealing with this shit all day.” See more below.

The show, formally billed as Yungfly Entertainment presents G Herbo and Ann Marie, was set to take place at the Chicago Theatre on Friday. When reached for comment by Complex on Saturday, a venue spokesperson directed Complex to a rep for Herbo. He and Ann Marie were next scheduled to perform in Houston, Texas on Saturday. Per the official Ticketmaster page, however, that show has also been called off.

Of course, part of being a fan is offering artists the freedom to be human, meaning canceled shows and/or delays are wholly inevitable. Additionally, allowing entitlement to drive one’s fandom isn’t healthy for anyone involved. Still, some fans have expressed frustration over the scrapped Chicago date on social media. Others, meanwhile, have taken a more understanding approach.
