It comes after Glover postponed the remainder of his North American tour last month to focus on his “physical health.”
“After my show in New Orleans, I went to the hospital in Houston to check on an ailment that had become apparent,” Glover said in a statement on X on Friday, Oct. 4.
“After being assessed, it became clear that I would not be performing that night, and after more tests, I was unable to complete the rest of the US tour at the time I requested. As of now, I have scheduled surgery and need time out for to heal.”
However, he said his road to recovery is “something I have to confront seriously”.
“I want nothing more than to give this show to the fans and perform.
“Until then, thank you for the love, integrity and support.”
Five-time Grammy winner Glover retired his stage name Childish Gambino in July of this year after releasing his final album, Bando Stone & The New World.
The tour would serve as American rapper Glover’s final farewell to Childish Gambino.
