The 6 God might be going on a massive tour soon, but if his latest sets are anything to go by, fans might be disappointed. Drake caught a lot of heat on social media for cutting his Lollapalooza Argentina set short and falling prey to a few other logistical issues. Fans claim that his performance was only about 40 minutes long, which differs from the typical hour and a half that a headliner would enjoy. Not only that, but the Canadian star allegedly barred his performance from being live-streamed just minutes before he arrived late to his show.
Moreover, this news is all the more concerning for Drake fans in the States, because it potentially indicates how his upcoming U.S. shows with 21 Savage will be. People are already outraged at the insanely inflated ticket prices for these shows. In fact, they added additional dates to accommodate demand, bringing the date count from 29 to 43. Still, it hasn't made $1,000+ tickets any easier to swallow. However, despite all the outrage and disappointment with Drizzy's Lolla Argentina performance, many of these factors aren't necessarily his fault.
Drake Cuts Lollapalooza Argentina Short
Given the sheer size and scope of the festival, it's natural that maybe there were some behind the scenes issues that we don't know about that Drake had to handle in the moment. What's curious is that it looks like event organizers were also blindsided by Drake's decision to not allow a set livestream. Furthermore, they replaced footage of his performance on their stream with a message for fans. "Drake decided, minutes before going on stage, to not permit the live transmission of his show, despite the formal agreement reached earlier," the message read. "We regret the artist's decision."
Meanwhile, Drake also performed at Lollapalooza Chile this weekend, which seems to have gone by without much of a hiccup. At least on Twitter, though, people are also complaining about a short set time. However, many people appreciated the set list itself, with many hits across his catalog, but that seems like a given for Drake. One can only wonder as to why he dismissed his sets this time around. Hopefully he'll give a longer set at Lollapalooza Brasil next weekend. Check out reactions to his Lollapalooza Argentina set below and return to HNHH for the latest on Drake.
