Drake must refund a millionaire fee after withdrawing from the show at Lollapalooza

According to journalist Leo Dias, from the news portal “Metrópoles”, the amount charged by Drake would be U$ 4 million, equivalent to R$ 21.2 million reais – this amount, paid entirely by the organization of the festival. So, with the star’s withdrawal from coming to the country, what was expected was the return of the “fee”, paid in advance – as most international artists demand.

Much criticized by the crowd that packed the Interlagos Autodromo, which is located in the capital of São Paulo, and “cancelled” by the public on social networks, the famous rapper even claimed that the withdrawal would be for production reasons, since his team would not be complete enough to perform a show at the height of the audience .

According to Lollapalloza’s advisory, the Canadian team would have sent a letter clarifying: “Due to unforeseen circumstances, Drake is without members of his sound and production team, essential to the realization of the show. Drake was excited to introduce himself to his fans in Brazil, unfortunately this is out of his control”…, explained the press.

Contrary to what the star alleges, sources of the journalist Leo Dias, still reveal, that the rapper does not like the way that Brazilians sing his songs, in addition to the pronunciation of the “wrong English”, “they show little excitement” during his presentations, he said. the source to the Metropolises.

The production of the event and the fans, who compare tickets, await the (fair) outcome of the situation.

Lollapalooza is one of the best-known music festivals in the world and has made history since its creation in 1991. In addition to the event spreading memories across Latin American countries, such as Chile and Argentina, it also makes artists even more recognized, such as the band Jane’s Addiction, which is currently one of the best known among the diverse public.

Therefore, there is a need for singers not to cause discomfort to fans, as was the case with Drake – who had already disappointed his Brazilian followers at Rock in Rio 2019.
