The remainder of Kanye West's Saint Pablo tour has been canceled, Pitchfork reported Monday after speaking to a representative for the hip-hop artist. The announcement followed a controversial weekend for West.

On Thursday night, West was booed after he announced at a concert that he didn't vote in the presidential election, but that he would have voted for President-elect Donald Trump. On Saturday, West ended his show in West Sacramento after performing just three songs and then launching into a rant in which he praised Trump and criticized Beyoncé, Hillary Clinton, President Obama, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, MTV, and the radio (for playing the same songs "over and over and over"). "It's a new world, Hillary Clinton," West said, per The Sacramento Bee. "It's a new world. Feelings matter. Because guess what? Everybody in middle America felt a way and they showed you how they felt … It's a new world, Barack. It's a new world, Jay Z."
