Sexyy Red’s tour preparations have encountered a serious hitch due to low ticket sales.
The rapper’s highly anticipated headlining tour, “Sexyy Red 4 President,” was scheduled to begin on August 22nd in Seattle at WAMU Theater, however sources indicate that the performance has been canceled. Unfortunately, this is not the only change; her upcoming shows in Portland on August 23rd and Oakland on August 26th have also been cancelled.
Fans are outraged by the cancellations, and they are expressing it online. Despite the tour’s high profile, Sexyy Red has not made an official statement on her social media platforms, leaving many admirers in the dark. Fans have responded harshly, with one commenting, “B* I’m trying so hard not to curse Sexyy Red out.” B*, why would she cancel her gig out here?!?!?!?!?” Another commented, “WHY WOULD YOU CANCEL YO SHOW IN OAKLAND WTF 😫”.

This development was not altogether predicted. In early July, The Art Of Dialogue and Touring Data showed that ticket sales were slow, with only 37.11 percent of the 85,217 tickets sold at the time. While it is unclear how sales have developed since then, it is apparent that they did not meet satisfactory levels, resulting in the cancellation.
The tour will now continue on August 24th in Atlanta’s State Farm Arena. Fans and industry experts will be watching intently to see if ticket sales rise and if the remaining dates run smoothly. For the time being, Sexyy Red’s tour has been hampered by cancellations and a lack of communication, leaving many fans worrying about the future of her gigs.
