Fetty Wap Forced To Cancel Festival Appearances

(Radio.com) Fetty Wap was scheduled to perform at the Reading and Leeds Festivals Friday (August 26) and Saturday (August 27), but he had to cancel due to doctor's orders.

The rapper developed a rather severe ear infection that he can not quite shake, and learned that air travel would put him at serious risk for hearing loss.

Fetty was tweeted out an apology and further explanation for missing out on the major British gigs. "I've been fighting a horrible ear infection, and my doctor ordered me to come in before I flew again," he wrote. Fetty tried to push back that visit until after his appearance at the festival, but his doctor informed him that he risked rupturing his ear drum or doing even greater damage."
