Promoter Claims Ross Played Other Gigs While Canceling NC Dates
1 Oct
Summary
- Rick Ross is being sued for $261,000 over two canceled concerts.
- The promoter alleges Ross performed in Florida on the same dates.
- 50 Cent publicly mocked Ross for the cancellations online.
Rick Ross, legally known as William Leonard Roberts II, is being sued for $261,000 by Omega14 Incorporated. The tour organizer alleges the rapper failed to perform at scheduled shows in Greensboro and Charlotte, North Carolina, on August 28 and August 29, 2026, respectively. Omega14 claims Ross's sister informed them he refused to perform.
According to the lawsuit filed in Charlotte, Omega14 asserts that Ross performed in Orlando and Miami Beach on the same dates the North Carolina shows were canceled. This contradicts any claims of severe injury or illness that would have prevented his appearance. The canceled concerts were part of the Port of Miami 20th Anniversary Orchestra Tour.
The promoter is seeking compensation for expenses and lost profits, estimating the total at $261,000. Omega14 argues Ross's alleged actions were unethical and harmful to consumers and businesses. Following the cancellations, ticket holders for both events were automatically issued refunds. Longtime rival 50 Cent posted online, mocking the cancellations.
