It has been reported that J. Cole was replacing The Weeknd at the Meadows Festival in New York City, this is false. Both artists are scheduled to perform.
Earlier this week, festival organizers announced that The Weeknd had to drop out of the festival due to “unforeseen scheduling conflicts.” But they bounced back quickly saying that J. Cole would be his replacement.
But now Billboard is reporting that a representative from The Weeknd’s camp is confirming that the “Starboy” singer will be on stage that Saturday at 6:15 p.m.
The Weeknd confirmed this by tweeting the new time himself.
