Sexyy Red’s tour plans have hit a major snag as she faces challenges with low ticket sales. The rapper’s highly anticipated headlining tour, “Sexyy Red 4 President,” was set to kick off on August 22nd in Seattle at WAMU Theater, but reports indicate that the show has been cancelled. Unfortunately, this is not the only change; her scheduled performances in Portland on August 23 and Oakland on August 26th have also been cancelled.
The cancellations come as a blow to fans, who are expressing their frustration online. Despite the tour’s high profile, there has been no official announcement from Sexyy Red on her social media accounts, leaving many fans in the dark. Reactions from fans have been harsh, with one writing, “B**** I’m trying so hard not to curse Sexyy Red out. B**** why this h*e canceled her show out here?!?!?!?!?!”. Another lamented, “WHY WOULD U CANCEL YO SHOW IN OAKLAND WTF 😫”.
This development is not entirely unexpected. Back in early July, The Art Of Dialogue and Touring Data revealed that ticket sales were lagging, with only 37.11 percent of the 85,217 tickets sold at that time. While it is unclear how sales have progressed since then, it is evident that they have not reached satisfactory levels resulting in it being cancelled.
The tour is now set to resume on August 24th in Atlanta at State Farm Arena. Fans and industry observers alike will be watching closely to see if ticket sales improve and if the remaining dates can go off without a hitch. For now, the cancellations and lack of communication have cast a shadow over Sexyy Red’s tour, leaving many wondering about the future of her shows.
