Ap Rocky - A$ap Rocky Turned Away At Canadian Border

Rising rapper A$Ap Rocky was forced to postpone a sold-out concert in Toronto on Tuesday (02Oct12) after his entourage was turned away by officials at the Canadian border.

The American hip-hop star was due to perform with newcomers Danny Brown and Schoolboy Q at the Sound Academy as part of his Long Live A$AP Tour, but the gig had to be axed at late notice due to "immigration issues".

Breaking the bad news to his Twitter.com followers, A$ap Rocky wrote, "Couldnt (sic) make it across the border I apologize to the fans we're rescheduling a new date".

It was the group's second attempt in just three days to cross the U.S./Canadian border - they were also denied entry last Sunday (30Sep12), according to Brown.

After that failed attempt, he tweeted, "Canada is mean... Looks like I will never be going to Canada".

The trio is expected to try their luck with border authorities once again on 20 October (12), when they are scheduled to play a show in Vancouver.
