Kid Cudi cancels his upcoming Insano: Engage the Rage World Tour after discovering his broken ankle is “much more serious” than he thought.
“Guys, my heel bone is broken,” Cudi posted on social media Wednesday. “I am headed for surgery now and there will be a long recovery time. “We have to cancel the tour so I can focus on getting better and being in top shape to be mad at all of you.”
The calcaneus is more commonly known as the heel bone. While some ankle fractures can heal in weeks, a calcaneal fracture has a longer recovery time. “This type of fracture commonly occurs during a high-energy event, such as a car accident or a fall from a ladder, when the heel becomes crushed by the weight of the body,” the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons says on its website. Surgery is often required to prevent heel deformity.
Friends, this is why you don't jump off one of the highest stages at Coachella.
“There's just no way I can recover in time to give 100%,” Cudi said. “The injury is much more serious than I thought.”
The US leg of Insano's tour was supposed to kick off on June 28 in Austin, Texas, and conclude with a show in Los Angeles on August 30. Kid Cudi planned to travel to Europe in early 2025; It's unclear if that part of the tour is still going on.
The rapper said ticket holders will be contacted via email and will receive a full refund. Additionally, new tour dates will be announced as soon as possible.
In a video posted earlier this week and captured by TMZ, Kid Cudi said with a smile: “This is what happens when a 40-year-old man tries to prance off stage like he's 26, like he used to do back in the day.” . .” He added that he “hoped” to be cured in time to hit the road.
So much for that idea.
“I am very sorry family and I love you all very much, thank you for the infinite love and support. I'm really disappointed and I'm sure you are too, but I will be back. That's a promise,” the rapper wrote on Wednesday.
“I'm fine, just a little sore, but I'm in good spirits.”
