November 27, 2024Eminem Gives Latto Her Flowers: “I love you by the way."

Travis Scott's highly anticipated Utopia LP will have to make its grand debut at an alternative venue, as the initial plan to perform at Egypt's iconic Pyramids of Giza on July 28 has been regrettably canceled. The Egyptian Syndicate of Musical Professions, the governing body responsible for granting permits for musical events, made the difficult decision to halt the concert.

In an official statement, the Syndicate expressed its deep commitment to upholding the cherished values and time-honored traditions of Egyptian culture. As an integral part of this beloved nation, the Syndicate remains dedicated to maintaining stability, security, and safeguarding societal values, as well as preserving the customs and traditions that are quintessentially Egyptian and Arab.

“Since the General Syndicate is part of the fabric of this beloved country, it is keen on its stability and security and refuses to tamper with societal values, and Egyptian and Arab customs and traditions,” the statement reads.

“Based on research and documented information about strange rituals at Travis’s concerts that are inconsistent with our authentic societal values and traditions, the Board of Directors has decided to cancel the license issued to hold this type of concert that contradicts the cultural identity of the Egyptian people.”

The decision to cancel the license was not taken lightly. Extensive research and meticulous examination of documented information led the Board of Directors to conclude that Travis Scott's music and live performances contained elements that clashed with our authentic societal values and traditions. 

While the statement does not explicitly detail the nature of these "strange rituals," it appears to allude to the unfortunate crowd surge incident that occurred during the Astroworld music festival in 2021.

Despite the cancellation, Travis Scott's manager has denied the false rumors surrounding the event. It is evident that the decision to cancel the concert was driven by the Syndicate's commitment to upholding cultural integrity and ensuring the well-being of concertgoers.
