Rapper 2 Chainz will not be performing at an upcoming music festival in Australia after he was denied permission to enter the country.
The hip-hop star was due to perform at the Future Music Festival in Sydney in March, but officials Down Under have refused to grant him a visa.
Organisers have now been forced to remove 2 Chainz from the line-up.
"We've been regrettably advised that 2 Chainz is unable to travel to Australia at this time. Both parties are disappointed - FMF (Future Music Festival) HQ loves 2 Chainz, and can't wait to get him down to Australia as soon as we can," organisers said in a statement.
The rapper wrote on Twitter: "To my Aussie fans, due to reasons beyond my control I will not be at Future Festival this year... hopefully I can make it there soon!"
The festival will go ahead with sets from stars including Rudimental, Tinie Tempah and Deadmau5.
2 Chainz was previously forced to axe an appearance at another Australian music event, the Movement Festival, in 2013 due to visa issues.
