“It was chaotic. There is some beauty in chaos,” Ocean’s statement read. “It isn’t what I intended to show but I did enjoy being out there and I’ll see you soon.”
The news of Ocean’s last-minute cancellation comes days after he headlined the third day of Coachella’s first weekend last on Sunday. The set was his first concert since 2017.

His Coachella set received mixed reviews, with festivalgoers tweeting that he started almost an hour late and that he was difficult to see from the stage. Fans at home were also disappointed that his set was not livestreamed on Coachella’s YouTube page like other headliners Bad Bunny and Blackpink.
