I'm not sure who was doing the booking of acts for the previously reported McDonalds US parking lot tour, but I don't think they did their research when it came to Twista. The rapper has been dropped from the music marketing venture with the company blaming the hip hop star's "controversial lyrics" for their decision. They said in a statement: "Although we respect free speech and artistic expression, we do not condone or perpetuate derogatory language. We want to ensure these free concerts are fun as well as appropriate for all of our customers, and especially the niggas and hos". Well, they said something like that.
McDonald's is now in talks for a replacement headliner for the Chicago leg of the tour on the 27 Aug, according to official reports. Meanwhile, Twista's representatives are yet to comment on the issue.
