On Friday the 1 Milli crooner, 27, informed fans on Instagram that his upcoming “A Good Time” tour in North America has been postponed to a yet announced date.
He wrote:
“I’m saddened to halt what has been a fantastic sold-out tour so far, but postponing is the right thing to do. The health and safety of my fans and staff is most paramount and nothing else matters. Be safe and see you all soon! God be with us all!”
Other musical acts who’ve canceled tour stops in response to coronavirus health and travel concerns in recent weeks include british grime rapper Stormzy who indefinitely suspended the Asian leg of his Heavy Is The Head world tour due to the recent Coronavirus outbreak in the region.
