Rapper Lil Durk has been forced to cancel multiple shows in his upcoming tour due to health concerns.
As of now, the rapper has canceled multiple shows both on the European part of his tour and the American part of his tour. The rapper was also forced to cancel festival performances and an appearance at the ESPY Awards due to his illness.
After falling ill in Ohio in early July, Lil Durk was hospitalized after undergoing severe dehydration as well as exhaustion. As a result, Durk was hospitalized for a few days. The rapper released a statement to TMZ Hip Hop so that his fans would know what his current status is and what that means for future tour dates.
“My fans mean everything to me, you’re the reason why I do this… I was looking forward to touching all of my European fans, performing this week(end), attending the ESPYs and more but after performing and traveling daily I’ve become severely dehydrated and advised by my doctors not to travel due to exhaustion. Once I get my full energy back, it’s back to business which I’m looking forward to,” Durk shared.
It has been revealed since then that the “All My Life” singer has not yet been given clearance by his doctors in order to perform again on stage but that he is still hoping for them to do so. Lil Durk shared a statement with blogger, Akademics, to share on his Instagram page updating fans about his current health journey.
“Since I’m still awaiting to get full clearance from my doctors to travel and perform again, I have no other choice but to cancel my headlining Rolling Loud performance,” the statement reads. “While I’m home resting, I am looking forward to my two homecoming shows on the 11th & 12th in Chicago. For the rest of the country, I’ll be announcing new dates soon. #StillHealing,” the rapper said.

To rehydrate yourself, it is important to drink plenty of water and pure fruit juice. Avoiding sugary and caffeinated drinks can also help prevent further dehydration.
