United Center Cancels NBA YoungBoy Concert a Day Before Show
The United Center canceled the concert after implementing a strict no-bag policy and following a recent fight at YoungBoy's Los Angeles show, affecting thousands of fans, officials said.
- On Tuesday, September 23, the United Center announced it had "made the decision to cancel" the NBA YoungBoy show scheduled for September 24 in Chicago.
- On the road for his first headlining run in five years, Kentrell DeSean Gaulden, known professionally as NBA YoungBoy, is on the 45-show MASA Tour supporting his July album MASA.
- A strict no-bag policy for the September 24 show barred bags of ALL SIZES, including clear bags, following a fight at the Los Angeles show and YoungBoy's feud with the Chicago rap community.
- Ticketholders were assured automatic refunds as Ticketmaster said, `You don't need to do a thing`, while the United Center has not confirmed a reschedule amid criticism from Alex Junnier and Mac Agency.
- Safety concerns in the city, underscored by a shooting that wounded fourteen and killed four at Mello Buckzz's album release party earlier this year, contributed to canceling YoungBoy's first Chicago stop since King Von's 2020 killing.
