Kid Cudi Boots M.I.A. From His Tour After Her Political Rants: 'I Won't Have Someone on My Tour Making Offensive Remarks [View all]

Cudder made the move official with an announcement to his Instagram Story on Monday (May 4) following a pair of shows in Austin and Dallas over the weekend.

“TOUR UPDATE: M.I.A is no longer on this tour. I told my management to send a notice to her team before we started tour that I didn’t want anything offensive at my shows, cuz I already knew what time it was, and I was assured things were understood,” he wrote. After the last couple shows, I’ve been flooded with messages from fans that were upset by her rants.”

Cudi continued: “This, to me, is very disappointing and I wont have someone on my tour making offensive remarks that upsets my fanbase. Thank you for understanding. – Rager”

Billboard has reached out to Kid Cudi and M.I.A.’s reps for comment.

The “Paper Planes” artist was booed during a rant at the Dallas stop over the weekend, which saw her touching on immigration and her political party allegiance.
