Yesterday rising r&b star Frank Ocean had all of NY buzzing about his upcoming first solo show in town at the Bowery Ballroom long before the day of the event came due to enormous buzz with his latest mixtape ” Nostalgia Ultra” but the hype really settled in with all the rave reviews coming in from his first show the night before at the House Of Blues in New Orleans. Unfortunately fans never got to experience the show in NY due to Frank cancelling the show an hr before he was to hit the stage due to being sick. Check out his “heartfelt” statement below.

new york is cancelled.

or should i say postponed. i played last night in new orleans, on antibiotics and some other meds. got sick a cpl days before i left los angeles. woke up this morning in new york and could barely speak. called a doctor to my hotel, got a steroid shot. took some more meds. laid in bed allday till soundcheck, got to the venue and could barely sing any of my songs. im really sorry yall. i been workin on this show for months, did everything i could to make it special for yall. i’ll be back soon as i’m healthy. thats my word. tickets will be valid for that, or you guys can get refunded. damn. this shit sucks.
