Soulja Boy Removed From Millennium Tour Following Young Dolph’s Death

Soulja Boy has been benched from the Millennium Tour in wake of Young Dolph’s fatal shooting.

G-Squared Events announced the news Thursday night, explaining its team made the decision out of safety concerns for the artists, patrons, and touring representatives. As of now, Soulja will not perform during this weekend’s stops in St. Louis and Memphis, where Dolph was gunned down Wednesday afternoon while visiting a bakery.

“The safety and welfare of our patrons are the first and foremost priority.” G-Squared Events said in a statement. “We pride ourselves on bringing high-quality concert experiences to our patrons. In times like this, we will stop at nothing to ensure that everyone that participates in these experiences is healthy, safe, and quite frankly having a good time.”⠀ ⠀

Soulja Boy later took to Instagram to respond to the decision, writing, “I’m still getting paid what him dying got do with me? I’m tryna see my fans.”
