Lollapalooza Pulls Plug On Lil’ Pump For Fans Going “Too Hard”
There are some conflicting stories, but the gist is that Lil’ Pump’s crowd was so rowdy that they cut his set short.
According to XXL, Chicago PD had to push back the crowd multiple times and people were moshing so hard that there were some people who fainted, as well as someone pulling a knife on someone else in the crowd.
Though these actions are not directly Lil’ Pump’s fault, it was noted by a fan that he showed up late and only played a few songs:

According to XXL, Lil’ Pump addressed the issues on Social Media, saying the following:
“Lollapalooza, listen up. That’s was some f***s***. Y’all stopped my whole set because everybody was f*****’ mosh pitting too hard. People were fainting. I stopped the show and got everybody that was fainting and they still cut my set off ’cause everybody mosh pitting too hard. It was ’bout to cause a riot.”
Chances are, after releasing that statement, we most likely won’t see Pump on the 2019 lineup. Even if he is, many concertgoers seem to want to never see him perform again.
