Drake has once again postponed a show from his It's All A Blur tour.
Nashville's Bridgestone Arena announced on Instagram Thursday afternoon that the rapper's Oct. 1-2 shows would be postponed and that rescheduled dates are still being finalized. This is the second time Drake's concerts in Nashville have been postponed on fans.
The Candian rapper was originally set to headline a show on June 19, but postponed the show until October. Adding a second date to the Nashville show as well.
Drake was set to play Aug. 6 at Memphis’s FedExForum, but ticketholders learned he wasn't coming until just a couple of days before the concert.
According to a statement from Drake's representatives given to FedExForum: "Due to the magnitude of the production of the Drake concert, it is logistically impossible to bring the show as designed to the FedExForum on August 6th. Unfortunately, the show is cancelled."
Bridgestone Arena's statement stated that the Nashville dates would be rescheduled and that all tickets would be honored.

Why did Drake postpone his concert?
The hip-hop star has yet to share details on the postponed concert on his social media channels but he recently spoke about finding it difficult to put out an album during the middle of a tour.
"Okay my dilemma I am faced with is either cancel shows to finish the album or I complete the mission and drop the album before the last show," Drake wrote in an Instagram story earlier this month while announcing a new release of his eight studio LP "For All the Dogs."
The album was initially scheduled to come out Sept. 22, but it is now set to come out Oct. 6.
According to his website, he will celebrate the album's release with two hometown shows at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. The Nashville date, alongside others in Columbus, Ohio, and New Orleans are listed as TBD.
