Ludacris‘ Milwaukee fans were treated to a free performance this week after the rapper’s show got canceled due to weather conditions.
Scheduled for Saturday (June 22), the Wisconsin city’s heavy rain and thunderstorms left officials with no choice but to can the show for safety concerns. However, Luda didn’t want to leave fans dissatisfied, so he headed over to the 3rd St. Market Hall with a mic and performed while he walked around the area.
“My Show In Milwaukee Got Cancelled Last Night Due To Rain & Thunderstorms But I DEFINITELY Wasn’t Leaving The City Without Touching The People,” he said in an Instagram post with a video of the performance. “Shouts to @stevedastoner4149 for the #freeconcert inspiration.”

Always one to put on a great show, Ludacris recently received his first-ever Webby Award for his epic performance during the Atlanta Falcons Hip Hop 50 celebration last year.
Taking to Instagram to react to the honor in April, the rapper-turned-actor thanked the committee and confessed that it was on his agenda regardless of the award.
“I just received word that I’ve received a Webby Award — the Internet’s highest honor,” he said in a video. “For rappelling down from the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. I’m blown away, because I wanted to do this shit anyways.”
He continued: “So thank you to the Falcons. And thank you to everybody involved. Everyone who knows me, knows I’m a thrill-seeker, knows I’m an adrenaline junkie. And I think it’s dope to be honored for something I’d do any-damn-way.”
Back in November Luda rappelled from the roof of Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium while rapping his classic hit “Move Bitch” as part of the city’s celebrations for 50 years of Hip Hop.
“I Got Some Georgia Dome Today,” the rapper and actor joked on Instagram, referencing the Falcons’ previous home while sharing GoPro footage of his theatrical stunt, which impressed not only those in attendance, but a number of his rap peers watching at home.
“WOW AMAZING,” Tyler, The Creator commented under the footage, while Redman added: “EXTREME [fire emojis] !!”
