M.I.A. has shared a statement regarding her departure from Kid Cudi's ongoing Rebel Rager tour after fans brought attention to comments she made during a show in Dallas over the weekend.⁠ ⁠ "I wrote 'Borders' and 'Illygal' and 'Paper Planes' before you thought immigrant rights were cool," M.I.A. wrote in a tweet regarding the rant. "Do not gas light my words."⁠ ⁠ "I’ve been flooded with messages from fans that were upset by her rants. This, to me, is very disappointing," Cudi expressed in an Instagram post that announced the lineup change. "I won't have someone on my tour making offensive remarks that upsets my fanbase."⁠ ⁠ -⁠ #pigeonsandplanes #mia #kidcudi #paperplanes
