Usher & Chris Brown Cancel 2 More R&B Tour Shows

The pair of R&B titans are wrapping up a five-night stay in Atlanta on Nov. 11.

Usher & Chris Brown Cancel 2 More R&B Tour Shows

Usher and Chris Brown have canceled two more performances on their R&B Tour. As of November 11, Ticketmaster has marked the shows for November 16 in Los Angeles and December 6 in Miami as cancelled. The reasons for the cancellations remain undisclosed, and neither artist has issued a statement at the time of reporting. It should be noted that the R&B Tour recently completed a mini-residency in Atlanta, with a final show scheduled for Wednesday.

A total of nine dates remain before the tour concludes on December 12. Six cancellations have been made since August, all of which were added dates extending the tour. In October, the tour canceled shows in Baltimore, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, and Columbia, South Carolina, citing the prioritization of the health and well-being of the touring party and crew.

Chris Brown was set to return to court in October regarding a 2023 nightclub assault in London, where he received a suspended jail sentence. Since resuming the tour in Atlanta on November 5, the co-headliners have faced a series of hiccups, with one concert starting over two hours late and the two artists never sharing the stage.

Since then, the tour has seen smoother performances, including appearances from artists like Jeezy, Bow Wow, and Sexyy Red. The R&B Tour was the highest-grossing and bestselling trek of September, generating $77.4 million and selling 423,000 tickets across ten shows.
