Tems will no longer be performing at Governors Ball in New York City next month. On Friday, the Nigerian star shared a statement on Twitter revealing that she had to pull out of the event for reasons out of her control. Shortly after, the festival announced that Ari Lennox will take her place.

“With great sadness I must announce that due to unforeseen circumstances, I won’t be able to perform at Governor’s Ball,” Tems wrote in a letter to her fans. “Please know that it was not my intention for this to happen and that it hurts me to know I can’t be there with you all.”
