Overview
Busta Rhymes has unexpectedly cancelled two sold-out UK live dates, with the legendary rapper no longer performing at The Forum in London or at Bestival this weekend.
A full explanation behind the cancellation is yet to be officially determined, however this morning saw Rhymes go on a twitter rant at Metropolis Music, the promoters behind The Forum show, which apparently led to the rapper pulling out of his much-anticipated Bestival slot.
Rhymes continued to confusingly deny all knowledge of a London show even happening, claiming he had been lied to and that the gig was falsely advertised without his permission.
Both shows have subsequently been cancelled, with no plans to reschedule the London date, Rhymes however did announce his intention to play Bestival 2015.
Read the series of tweets below:
MY PEOPLE IN LONDON JUST 4 THE RECORD THE SHOW AT THE FORUM WAS NEVER AN AUTHORIZED SHOW!! METROPOLIS MUSIC AND ANDY ROBBINS LIED 2 U ALL!!!
ANDY ROBBINS AND METROPOLIS MUSIC R LIARS AND WERE NEVER AUTHORIZED BY ME OR MY REPS TO PROMOTE ANY SHOW TO HAPPEN AT THE FORUM IN LONDON!!

BECAUSE OF THE COMPLICATIONS WITH THE FORUM SHOW @BESTIVAL HAS BEEN CANCELED ASWELL BUT WE R ALREADY WORKING 2 MAKE @BESTIVAL 2015 HAPPEN!!
NO SHOW AT THE FORUM IN LONDON ON SEPT. 6TH DUE 2 FALSE ADVERTISEMENT BY METROPLIS MUSIC AND ANDY ROBBINS!!! GET YOUR MONEY BACK NOW!!!
Busta Rhymes' performance at Bestival would have been a UK exclusive, and the rapper's first ever festival show on British soil.
