Nas to Perform in Place of Snoop Dogg at State Fair

Snoop Dogg will not perform on Wednesday at Chevy Court, backing out due to illness, TWC News has reported.

According to the report, another rap music legend, Nas, was quickly lined up as a replacement.

Snoop Dogg was one of the most anticipated shows this year, and part of the Fair’s goal to start diversifying the Chevy Court lineup.

According to a statement from acting director Troy Waffner:

“We are fortunate to be able to secure an artist of Nas’s stature on such short notice.  His record as a performer speaks for itself and tomorrow night, he’ll put on what I know will be one of the most interesting shows of the 2015 Fair.”
