Kid Cudi has removed M.I.A. from his North American tour after receiving backlash from fans regarding her comments during a recent performance. M.I.A. made provocative statements, including identifying as a Republican and discussing her immigration status, which led to audience disapproval. In response to her removal, M.I.A. defended her past work on immigration rights and criticized the current cultural climate. The tour will continue as scheduled, with no announcement yet on a replacement for M.I.A. alongside Big Boi.
