Drake's cancellation of his Lollapalooza Brazil headlining set sparked immediate backlash online. Fans were quick to point out that he was seen partying with 50 Cent in Miami the night before his scheduled performance. The festival issued a statement citing "unforeseen circumstances" and the absence of Drake's sound and production team as the reason for the cancellation. Skrillex was brought in as a last-minute replacement. Brazilian media reported Drake's alleged disinterest in performing in South America, where he purportedly perceives a smaller return on investment compared to Europe, the United States, and Saudi Arabia. He was reportedly paid $4 million for his Lollapalooza Brazil appearance. Drake also faced criticism for allegedly cutting his performances short at the Argentina and Chile editions of Lollapalooza, with sets lasting only around 40 minutes. Lollapalooza Brazil 2024 took place from March 22-24 and featured headliners such as Blink-182, SZA, and Paramore.
