Meek Work, Wale and Machine Gun Kelly were also set to for a show at the high profile shows, though a show set pertaining to Sunday evening (December 9, 2012) with Nashville remains on schedule.

Local news outlet WCNC say the cancellation relates to threats from the Gangster Disciples team, who have a beef with Rick Ross. They put out a video warning the rapper to stay out of Charlotte, with the Live Nation complying and offering refunds for your show. Paul Scott, a minister from Durham who's also a hip hop correspondent, said, "I think fans should now be concerned. I think the parents should now be concerned because you never realize. Hip hop does not represent the true street. The commercial Hip Hop that will Rick Ross promotes represents Retaining wall Street and Wall Street cares nothing about losing human life if they will make a dollar or two. " Dean Cole, a friend of Ross as well as Assistant Programming Director for Electric power 98 Radio, said he didn't assume that fans would have had anything to worry about and that one day Ross plus the Disciples would work out the problems.
