Kanye West has canceled his headline appearance at this year¡¯s Fuji Rock Festival ¡°due to artist circumstances,¡± according to festival organizers.
The news came as West¡¯s camp also announced the 36-year-old hip-hop star would postpone his tour in Australia next month until September, citing ¡°unexpected timing requirements¡± to finish a ¡°new studio album, scheduled for a 2014 release.¡±
This leaves Fuji Rock without a headline act, but since the recently reunited Outkast was added to the roster last month, hip-hop fans may not be too disappointed.
Fuji Rock will not be offering refunds for West¡¯s cancelation.
