Drake has cancelled the Memphis date for his It’s All A Blur tour with 21 Savage due to issues relating to the production of the show.
According to a statement from the FedExForum (via Commercial Appeal), the Toronto hitmaker forfeited the August 6 tour date which was also confirmed by Ticketmaster.

This is the second time Drizzy has cancelled a show in Memphis for the sold-out tour. The first cancellation came on June 29, and it was rescheduled to August 6 according to the aforementioned outlet.
Despite the cancellation, Drake has been having a ball on tour in practically each city he visits since kickstarting things last month.

In addition to the numerous special guests he’s brought out, he’s been collecting bras from fans and the garment sizes that get thrown on stage seem to keep increasing.
During a show in Washington, D.C. on July 29, an audience member tossed the 6 God a bra that left him in disbelief. Upon checking its size, he was hilariously left confused about the measuring system for women’s undergarments.
“36L?!” the Toronto rapper reacted in shock after picking up the pink clothing item. “How many letters does it go up to?”

After walking over to another piece that was sized 42H, he said: “This is crazy. This can’t real. Whose is this? Where did this come from? State your name immediately. Nah, this is custom work right here.”
During a previous show in Brooklyn, New York on July 21 , Drake caught a woman’s bra and rubbed it in his face before looking at the tag.
“Damn, 36G?” he said upon seeing the size. “Locate this woman immediately!”
A few days after the footage went viral, said woman took to social media to reveal that it was her bra Drake had caught hold of.
“So, I went to Drake’s concert with no intention of really throwing my bra,” Veronica Correia said in a video while also showing a clip of her throwing it.

“I had mentioned it but I was like you know what, no like, this is what I’m going to wear for the night. I’m going to keep it on. And then, I was having a little fun and he came past me and walked to the DJ booth where he was really singing right in from me. I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m gonna do it,’ because he passed right by me.”
She continued: “I just knew he was going to pick it up if I threw it right at his feet. There was no way he was going to walk by it. So, I ended up taking the one off that I was wearing that night. That is my actual bra size. And I threw it at his feet and I lost my mind when he picked it up and reacted the way he did. It was definitely full circle.”
