Cachê and the Brazilian public would have influenced the Brazilian rapper’s decision
the rapper dragon canceled his performance at Lollapalooza Brasil, this Sunday morning (26), hours before performing at the festival. Without further explanation, the headliner was replaced by DJ Skrillex, who hadn’t performed in Brazil since 2016.
According to Leone Dias, dragon reportedly canceled the show in the 10th edition of the festival for a variety of reasons, including the payment of the festival and even the Brazilian audience itself.
The columnist revealed, firstly, that the rapper has a certain “discouragement” to perform in South America because he would receive less for the presentations. However, it is worth remembering that the compensation that the Canadian would receive for performing at Lollapalooza Brasil would be the highest in the history of the Brazilian festival: about 21 million reais (about 4 million dollars). Meanwhile, his performances in North America and the UAE would pay double.
Also, another reason that would have influenced the rapper to cancel his presentation would be the Brazilian audience. Drake reportedly thinks audiences are “asking too much” of his performances, as he prefers to perform without big pyrotechnics and dancers.
And finally, Leo Dias pointed out that the Canadian rapper considers the Brazilian public very discouraged. This impression would have come after his presentation at Rock In Rio, from which he would have come out “shocked”. However, Drake would be sidelined due to the “wrong English” sung by the Brazilian audience.
