J. Cole Cancels Concert After Crew Member Dies in Trucking Accident

Cole had to take a pause.

As the “No Role Modelz” musician (real name Jermaine Lamarr Cole) continues his Fall-Off World Tour, his Aug. 27 stop in Sacramento, California, was canceled after a crew member died in a highway crash, the venue confirmed.

“Following the tragic passing of a member of the touring crew in a trucking accident this morning, J. Cole’s show,” Golden 1 Center’s Aug. 27 Facebook post began, “has been canceled.”

The message continued, “Our thoughts are with the crew member’s family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.” 

The venue also shared additional information for fans planning to attend the 29th date of his international tour.

“Guests who purchased tickets through Ticketmaster will be refunded automatically,” the statement concluded. “Remaining guests may seek refunds at their original point of purchase.”

E! News has reached out to Cole’s reps and the California Highway Patrol for comment and has not yet heard back.
