YoungBoy Never Broke Again will no longer headline Rolling Loud Orlando this weekend. The Baton Rouge star was originally set to close out Sunday’s lineup, but he has officially withdrawn from the festival. According to HotNewHipHop, the rapper confirmed the news on his Instagram Story after rumours began circulating earlier in the week.

In his message, YoungBoy Never Broke Again explained that he needs time away from travelling, touring and performing. He also thanked his fans for their continued support. The update comes after his ‘Make America Slime Again’ tour, which helped increase demand for more festival appearances.

Whilst the news is disappointing for fans who hoped to see him live in Orlando, Rolling Loud has already named Ken Carson as his replacement. Carson, one of Opium’s biggest acts outside of Playboi Carti, brings his own high-energy fanbase to the bill. For YoungBoy, the pause signals a needed moment to reset.
