Future added to Friday Outkast concert
Atlanta rapper Future has been added to the Friday Outkast lineup at Centennial Olympic Park.
He replaces Solange, who cannot attend due to complications arising from a recent root canal.
According to Solange’s rep, the singer is “unable to perform and has been forced to cancel. A lifelong fan, she is disappointed but thankful to Outkast for the opportunity.”
Friday's show – the first of three homecoming concerts for the Atlanta rap duo – will also feature Janelle Monae and 2 Chainz.
Other guests will join Outkast for their Saturday and Sunday shows; check out the full lineup here.
Outkast has also teamed with Uber for a promotion. Riders who use the code UberOUTKAST in the Uber app between noon and 1:30 p.m. each show day will unlock a special UberOUTKAST view. Several winners will get an Outkast fan package and tickets to that night’s show delivered to their location via Uber. Additionally, for every person who signs up for Uber and rides during Outkast weekend, $5 will be donated one of the duo’s designated charities, Centers of Hope or Big Kidz.
