A high-profile row has erupted in the music world with the news that British singer songwriter M.I.A will no longer be the opening act for US rapper Kid Cudi's Rebels Rage tour.
According to reports, the decision to remove M.I.A from the line-up was made due to a disagreement between the two artists.
The Rebels Rage tour was set to kick off in the UK in the coming weeks, with M.I.A pencilled in to open for Kid Cudi at various dates.
The news is likely to be a blow to M.I.A's fans in the UK, who were looking forward to seeing her perform live.
The Foreign Office has yet to issue any travel advice in relation to the tour, but fans are advised to check the event website for updates.
The Rebels Rage tour is expected to go ahead as scheduled, with Kid Cudi still set to perform at the various UK dates.
