Gambino began his tour in Oklahoma City on August 11 and two weeks later, the artist had to cancel a show in Connecticut “due to production issues” and he had to call off a show in Houston last night “due to illness.” Including the postponed Texas concert, 16 performances are affected by the musician’s apparent health issues.

Gambino announced New World Tour back in May, ahead of the release of his album, Bando Stone and the New World. The artist was supported on the North American leg of the tour by Willow.
