Chance The Rapper was also due to headline Longitude but has also pulled out.
It’s the lineup that keeps changing…
Another headliner has been forced to pull out of Longitude this weekend with just hours to go.
Rapper ASAP Rocky was due to play tonight but is currently being detained in Sweden on suspicion of assault.
The star was allegedly involved in an altercation in Stockholm on Sunday.
Longitude announced that he would not be performing tonight, and that Ski Mask The Slump God would be his replacement.
“UPDATE: Due to the Swedish authorities decision to continue to detain A$AP Rocky he will no longer be able to headline #LONGITUDE2019 tonight. It’s not all bad news though, we are delighted to announce that Ski Mask The Slump God will close the main stage tonight instead!” they said in a tweet.
