Joeboy stopped from performing in Saint Luca over use of cuss word on stage

Popular Nigerian artist Joseph Akinfenwa Donus, better known as Joeboy, recently shared a startling incident in which he nearly faced arrest and was unable to perform in Saint Lucia.

The talented singer, known for his hit song "Alcohol," was scheduled to entertain at an event in the Eastern Caribbean island nation. However, his performance was abruptly cancelled during the show.

In a post on his Instagram Story, Joeboy revealed that he was prevented from performing due to the use of explicit language by his disc jockey. Neither he nor his team had prior knowledge of a law in the country that prohibited such language during performances.

"Saint Lucia, I travelled over 40 hours to be with you, and I was super excited to perform here for the first time. I couldn’t perform today due to issues with the organisers." I tried my best to give you the best performance today, but my set was cut off and my DJ was taken off stage. My DJ was taken off stage because he said, ‘Make some f*cking noise’. We were not given any memo that we couldn’t use any curse words on stage," he wrote.
