- Swiss football club FC Basel has cancelled a planned June concert by Kanye West (Ye) at St Jakob-Park, saying the show was "not in accordance with our values" and they would not "provide a platform for the artist".
- This cancellation is part of a series of issues for West, stemming from backlash over his past antisemitic comments.
- A concert scheduled for 19 June in Chorzów, Poland, was also cancelled due to "formal and legal reasons", with Poland's culture minister deeming his views "unacceptable",
- Earlier this month, West's headline performance at Wireless Festival in London was blocked after the UK government denied him entry to the country.
- West himself postponed his 11 June show in Marseille, France, citing a need to "make amends", though a concert in Madrid is still expected to proceed.
