Hip hop superstar Lil Wayne has canceled shows in Vancouver and Edmonton due to illness. Before anyone says anything, Lil Wayne is not dead. Lil Wayne is simply ill. It ain't easy being Weezy.

The America's Most Wanted Music Festival, which also features Young Jeezy, Soulja Boy and Drake, will resume on August 20 in Englewood, CO.

If you had tickets for the canceled shows, contact your point of purchase for a refund.

August 20 - Denver at Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre

August 22 - Houston at Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion

August 23 - Dallas at Superpages.com Center

Vancouver's Aug. 17 show was cancelled — hours before the Grammy-award winner was expected to take the stage at GM Place — as was Edmonton's Aug. 18 date

A representative for the rapper says his two Western Canadian dates on his Young Money Presents: America’s Most Wanted Music Festival tour were cancelled due to doctor’s orders.
