My former editor, Jay Cridlin of the Tampa Bay Times, said it best when he reminded local hip-hop fans to “ bear in mind, [that Chief Keef] has canceled way more shows in Tampa Bay than he’s actually thrown.” So, it was with caution that we even mentioned this “Baychella” appearance from the 22-year-old Chicago rapper, who was a big reason the Windy City’s drill-rap sound ended up going coast-to-coast.

"A new date has not been set, but an email will go out as soon as we get the rescheduled date," the Eventbrite page says.

Ticket refunds can be claimed at point of purchase.
