AceShowbiz - A$AP Rocky has regretfully announced that he will no longer be performing at this weekend's iHeartRadio Music Festival 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada, due to illness.

"I ended up getting sick and won't be able to perform," wrote Rocky on his Instagram story. "I'm sorry to my fans and grateful to iHeartRadio for the opportunity."

As a headliner set for Saturday evening, A$AP Rocky's absence leaves a significant void in the festival's lineup. However, the festival boasts an impressive roster of stars, including The Weeknd, Dua Lipa, Doja Cat, Big Sean, and Paramore. No replacement for Rocky has been named, but fans speculate that The Weeknd or Doja Cat may step up.

Rocky had planned to unveil new music from his upcoming album, "DON'T BE DUMB", which was originally slated for release on August 30 but has been delayed. The album, six years in the making, has been affected by numerous leaks, prompting Rocky to postpone its release. Despite the setback, Rocky assures fans that it's still scheduled for a 2024 release.

In the meantime, Rocky has released new singles, including "Tailor Swif," a fan favorite despite being leaked years ago, and "Ruby Rosary," a collaboration with J. Cole produced by The Alchemist. It remains unclear if these tracks will make the final album, but they have kept fans excited for its eventual arrival.
