Donald Glover Cancels Tour to Undergo Surgery: ‘Need Time Out to Heal’

Donald Glover canceled the rest of his New World Tour to focus on recovering from surgery: It's 'something I need to confront seriously.'

The artist explained that following his show in New Orleans on Sept. 7, he went to the hospital in Houston to review “an ailment that had become apparent.” After several tests, he understood he wouldn’t be able to perform on the rest of his U.S. tour dates. On the road, Gambino played nearly the entirety of Bando Stone and the New World, opening his set with “ H3@RT$ W3RE M3@NT T0 F7¥.” He also brought back some deep cuts that he hadn’t performed in years. He had plans to perform in Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, and Chicago, and was set to continue his shows in Europe with Amaarae as an opener starting Oct. 31.
