Rick Ross continued to apologize to fans for the cancellation. "I want to apologize to all of my fans who I missed performing for due to the cancellations and want to let them know that I will get back to their cities," Ross told the site. "I enjoyed my experience with my little bros Wale and Meek Mill and I'm ready to get back in the studio to make good music."
The reports of the cancellation of the MMG tour came a day after Ross cancelled two shows in North Carolina. Soon after news broke on Thursday, reports came in that the rapper had cancelled the shows due to threats from the Gangster Disciples street gang. Local news outlet WCNC and other outlets report that beef between Ross and Gangster Disciples stirs from his mention of the gang's imprisoned leader, Larry Hoover, in his song, "B.M.F. (Blowin' Money Fast)."
