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.
