Lil Durk’s absence at Rolling Loud New York on Thursday (October 28) left plenty of fans demanding refunds and more.
The OTF rapper was one of the festival’s big headliners on day one, including Lil Uzi Vert, 50 Cent and Gucci Mane. As fans anxiously awaited his arrival, it became apparent Durk wasn’t touching the Rolling Loud stage, prompting some festival attendees to throw bottles at the stage.
Although Durk never made it clear why he didn’t perform at Rolling Loud, nor did the festival explain why he never took the stage, fans vented their frustrations on social media about the night in general.
“Bro @RollingLoud y’all owe me some money for this VIP shit,” one user wrote. “No @lildurk no @fettywap & others. W/ exception of Pooh Shiesty wtf bro. Niggas started throwing shit at the stage. Fans pay Money bag to see you at least let us kno what’s up! Give us that shit happens.”
Fetty Wap’s absence from the festival was revealed on Friday (October 29) when he was arrested at Rolling Loud on federal drug charges. According to court documents, the rapper and others are accused of distributing more than 100 kilograms of cocaine, heroin, fentanyl and crack cocaine across Long Island and New Jersey. If convicted, he faces life in prison.
The festival, in particular its New York event, has become fodder for incidents involving Hip Hop stars in recent years. In 2019, Pop Smoke, Casanova and others were asked to be removed from the lineup due to their association with violence in the city.
The New York Police Department sent Rolling Loud a letter mentioning Pop, Casanova, Sheff G, Don Q and 22GZ, stating their performances would increase violence due to their alleged gang affiliations.
“The above listed performers have been affiliated with recent acts of violence citywide,” the letter read in part. “The New York City Police Department believes if these individuals are allowed to perform, there will be a higher risk of violence. I look forward to working with you in an effort to keep this event safe.”
Rolling Loud New York wrapped up on Saturday (October 30).
Ghosted…LoL! Sounds bout ryt! Durk music a myth just lyk the man himself. Dese jerk-offs throwing bottles on stage are probably dumb enuff to expect Biggie, Pac and King Von to join lineup. Rest In Peace to the dead! SMH
No refunds for supporting garbage music!
Dude is turning into David Ruffin…
Lmfaoo
“Ain’t nobody here to see you OTIS”
Lol sucks to be them. I never paid to go to a concert in my life. I never saw the point of worshiping another man on a stage just because I like his music. Rolling loud should have sent out a midget with a mop on his head to lip sync to Durks songs. Most of those dumb fans will be so high on pills they wont even know the difference.
I’m sure Durk bounced after he was told the feds arrested Fetty..
Lol this clown too scared and embarrassed to show his face again because of the whole Doodie Lo fiasco. Everybody knows he keeps pedophiles on his team now
YO YOU CANT BE MAD IF YOU PAID TO SEE TRASH. THEY LITERALLY GOT WHAT THEY PAID FOR!
