Border issues reportedly behind G-Eazy’s cancelled Cowboys gig

Upsetting hundreds of fans lined up outside the Cowboys Music Festival tent, rapper G-Eazy cancelled his headlining show Monday night.

In a statement released Monday evening, the popular entertainment venue said: “Cowboys regrets to inform you that G-Eazy is unable to perform tonight due to reasons beyond our control.”

Cowboys will be offering refunds for the tickets, saying, “We’re going to make it up to you and make it rain with tens of thousands of dollars in cash to our amazing fans tonight!”

But the statement also promised, “Calgary’s biggest Hip Hop Party will rage on tonight.”

Even though the Hip Hop Party was set to continue without G-Eazy, fans were not happy about the announcement outside the music festival’s tent.

Melissa Keegan said her friend paid $400 for three tickets.

“Straight up ... it’s not cool,” Keegan said.

TMZ reported G-Eazy and his crew “ran into issues” with Canadian customs when they touched down Monday in Calgary.

The 29-year-old rapper got into some trouble on a trip to Sweden recently, which could have influenced his ability to enter Canada, according to TMZ.

Shannon Brown, one of the fans lined up outside the Cowboys tent, blamed G-Eazy for being unprepared at border security.

“I think he probably should’ve checked immigration laws before he came to Calgary,” Brown said.

Canada Border Services Agency said it could not comment on whether it stopped G-Eazy from getting to the concert.
