American rapper Kanye West has announced the postponement of an upcoming concert in Marseille, France 'until further notice'. It comes a week after this summer's Wireless Festival - which West had been scheduled to headline - was cancelled following the UK government's decision to block him from entering the country. French media reports that Interior Minister Laurent Nunez was looking to ban the 11 June gig. An unnamed source, said to be close to Nunez, was citing as telling AFP news agency that the minister was 'highly determined' to ban the event. For the last several years, West has caused outrage for a string of antisemitic, racist and pro-Nazi comments. 'After much thought and consideration, it is my sole decision to postpone my show in Marseille, France until further notice,' West, now known as Ye, said in the early hours of Wednesday in a post on X. In a follow-up statement, the rapper added: 'I know it takes time to understand the sincerity of my commitment to make amends. I take full responsibility for what's mine but I don't want to put my fans in the middle of it. My fans are everything to me. Looking forward to the next shows'. West was due to play Wireless in London and the Marseille concert as part of a European tour scheduled for this summer. West, 48, was also scheduled to play in New Delhi, India in late May. It was reported last week that Bart van den Brink, the Dutch asylum and migration minister, had said there were no plans there to bar the rapper. In France, AFP reported that Nunez was exploring 'all possibilities' to prohibit West from performing - but did not provide further details. The government stated that the decision to refuse permission was made on the grounds that West's presence would not be conducive to the public good.
