NBA YoungBoy was in Atlanta a few nights ago for the MASA Tour, and as expected, he delivered an intense show. His concerts have been packed from city to city, with the kind of high energy only his fans can bring. But just like the rest of this tour, the stop in Atlanta didn’t go by without its share of drama. Not long ago, his Chicago date was also called off.
After receiving the key to the city of Atlanta on Wednesday night under questionable circumstances, YoungBoy quickly saw the mood shift. State Farm Arena confirmed that his show scheduled for Saturday was officially canceled.
The venue didn’t provide a specific explanation, but it’s not hard to see why they might have made this decision. During his Wednesday set, YoungBoy performed “I Hate YoungBoy,” a track that directly calls out major Atlanta names like Lil Baby, Gucci Mane, and 21 Savage. The song also takes aim at Chicago artists
For YoungBoy’s fans, the cancellation is a big letdown. Those who attended the first night probably feel lucky, but the Saturday crowd won’t get the same chance. Ticketmaster has confirmed refunds for anyone who bought their passes through their platform, softening the blow a little.
This setback adds to the list of issues the rapper has faced during this run. Still, he has plenty of remaining stops, with the MASA Tour continuing through the end of November. His fanbase is loyal and strong, and a canceled show won’t stop crowds from filling other venues.
This moment in YoungBoy’s career is still a powerful one, and the support he’s received has been huge. Hopefully, the rest of the tour will go smoothly from here. For now, everyone’s waiting to see if State Farm Arena will give an official explanation for the sudden cancellation.

Live from London, it is Saturday Night Live.
The legendary sketch comedy institution officially launched its UK edition on March 21 with Saturday Night Live UK, featuring former SNL cast member Tina Fey as host and British indie rock group Wet Leg as the episode’s musical guest.
This global expansion of Lorne Michaels’ famous NBC program began with Fey’s opening monologue, which included unexpected cameos from Michael Cera and UK television personality Graham Norton.
“It’s an absolute honour and kind of historic,” Fey told the crowd. “Guys, I am the youngest person to ever host SNL UK!”
During the broadcast, Wet Leg delivered performances of two songs taken from their second album Moisturizer, which opened at Number 6 on Billboard’s Top Rock and Alternative Albums chart and also climbed to Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart in the United Kingdom.
The band first appeared performing the record’s fourth single “Mangetout,” a Grammy nominated song that also earned a place on Billboard’s list of the 20 best UK and Ireland songs of 2025. Later in the show they returned to play the album’s lead single “Catch These Fists.”
After their appearance on SNL UK, Wet Leg will travel back to the United States for a series of major festival dates including Coachella, Governors Ball, Bonnaroo and Outside Lands. Their US tour is scheduled to begin April 15 at the Fox Theater in Pomona, California.
Upcoming episodes of SNL UK have also been confirmed. Wolf Alice will serve as musical guest on the March 28 episode hosted by Jamie Dornan, while Kasabian will perform on the April 2 show with Riz Ahmed as host.
The show is broadcast on Sky in the United Kingdom and is available to stream on Peacock in the United States. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the first episode attracted more than 220,000 viewers on Sky. It was released in the US on March 22 via Peacock.
