Here's What Fans Think of SiR Claiming Drake Had His 2024 Toronto Show Canceled
Top Dawg Entertainment singer SiR had his 2024 tour stop in Toronto canceled, and he made his return north of the border for a show on Wednesday (June 4). During his performance, SiR placed the blame for his original cancellation on Drake. In a clip from the performance, SiR says that he was 'caught in the middle of a beef I ain't have s–t to do with,' referencing the ongoing feud between the Toronto rapper and Kendrick Lamar. However, SiR quickly walked back the claims and said it was the venue — which is co-owned by Drizzy — that cancelled his show.

I ain't taking no motherf—ing chance you gon' get your ass beat,'' he says in the clip. Billboard has reached out to Drake's team for comment. The clip from Wednesday's concert went viral on social media as fans had plenty to say about SiR's claims, who himself wondered, 'Why is this news?' Plenty of OVO fans were riled up at SiR's comments and hopped into his replies on X. 'It's news because you said Drake name,' one person said. Another added: 'Why you mentioning Drake when he has no clue who you are?' At the time of the 2024 show, SiR blamed the venue in a statement to fans on X. 'So sorry to my Toronto fans. The show has been canceled. We're working on rescheduling for a later date,' he wrote, per VIBE. 'For those wondering, we sold that show out. It was canceled by the venue. Not sure why. My apologies again to those that came just to see me.' SiR wasn't the only TDE-affiliate to have issues touring in Canada, as ScHoolboy Q also had a show scrapped in Toronto last summer. 'THey just canceled my sHow in TORONTO,' he said at the time. 'CANADIAN POLICE DONT WANT NOBODY FROM TDE PERFORMING.'
