Rapper Plies recently canceled his scheduled performance at this year’s VH1 Hip Hop Honors show, which is being taped tonight (June 3rd) in New York City.

Plies was scheduled to perform at the Hip Hop Honors show, in which this year VH1 is honoring rapper’s and producers from the South and their contributions to hip hop.

The rapper said he made the decision to back out of the performance due to a scheduling conflict related to the release of his upcoming fourth album Goon Affiliated. Plies replied, “I had to make a choice between personally meeting with my fans during my album promo tour or performing at the VH1 Hip Hop Honors and the choice was easy -fans come first.”

Plies did however mention that he will make it up to the fans who missed seeing him perform at the VH1 Hip Hop Honors show, on the nationwide tour that he is planning to embark on after the release of Goon Affiliated which will hit store shelves on June 8th.

The VH1 Hip Hop Honors: Dirty South will air on VH1, Monday June 7 at 9 P.M.
