Casanova, Sheff G & Don Q Responds To NYPD Dropping Them From Rolling Loud Lineup

We reported some hours ago that Rolling Loud has dropped Casanova, Don Q, Pop Smoke and more from their lineup as requested by the NYPD.

It came as surprise to many, but as soon as the request got to Rolling Loud, they compiled.




The 5 rappers that were dropped are said to be a threat to the festival. The reason behind this according to the news outlet is that all artists ”have been affiliated with recent acts of violence citywide.”

The NYPD is concerned each one of the artists mentioned could cause violence to break out in the crowd if they were to perform.

Casanova denied being involved in any acts of violence and said that he has been squeaky clean since 2007.

He took to instagram to share a lengthy post on his disappointment in the cancellation.

“I JUST WANNA LIVE. My last felony conviction was 2007. I lost everything I ever loved and I’m STILL losing. So much so that ‘they’ won’t allow me to perform at Rolling Loud NYC on Sunday,” Casanova complained.

“It’s unfair and unfortunate that my past, which I’ve dealt with legally and personally, continues to stigmatize me and my career as a recording artist. I’m at war with my past and the scars that they still leave on me everyday.”

I JUST WANNA LIVE. My last felony conviction was 2007. I lost everything I ever loved and I’m STILL losing. So much so that “they” won’t allow me to perform at Rolling Loud NYC on Sunday. It’s unfair and unfortunate that my past, which I’ve dealt with legally and personally, continues to stigmatize me and my career as a recording artist. I’m at war with my past and the scars that they still leave on me everyday. I will continue to fight against biases and advocate for those facing this same issue. I’ll do what do what I plan to make it up to y’all. In the meantime, you can catch me on my Behind These Scars tour or another Rolling Loud in the future. Drop a 👊🏾 if you’re free from the system and drop a ✊🏾 on behalf of friends and family who aren’t. #BehindTheseScars ALBUM OUT NOW.

A confused Don Q also expressed his disbelief  as to why he was canceled since he’s never been involved in any gang activity.

“I love my city and I never been in any gang activities or never had issues at any of my previous shows,” Don Q said. “I hope the city will wake up and see that cancelling me and my fellow NY artists isn’t the solution, we just love what we do and want to perform for our fans,” Don Q said.




Sheff G was also heated he would not be able to perform at Rolling Loud this year.
