Donald decided not to go through with his Mohegan Sun, New York show tonight after disagreements with production.

“While creating THE NEW WORLD TOUR, the idea was to give fans a new experience. We use a lot of new technologies, and when doing so, technical difficulties can arise,” he wrote.

“Delivering a quality show that all of us @ GILGA can be proud of has remained paramount to us. a show I would be proud to bring to all the Childish Gambino fans across the world.”

“This has created some challenges in some settings. due to production issues, tonight’s Childish Gambino concert @ Mohegan Sun must be canceled.  Refunds will be issued at point of purchase,” Childish went on.

“Personally, I’m really upset by this. I just met some fans in the lobby and a father who drove out w/ his daughter’s bday and was trying to get a shoutout (happy birthday btw). the team is coming up w/ a way to make it up to fans, so we’ll be in contact w/ everyone who bought a Mohegan Sun ticket.

“I know tickets, hotels, driving, all that isn’t cheap. so we’ll come up with something. again, my deepest apologies,” he ended.
