Fans of several big-name Hip-Hop groups have been scammed out of thousands of dollars along with a show, after criminals duped local promoters.
Local promoters in La Crosse, Wisconsin were working with a booking agent to bring Cypress Hill, Naughty by Nature, and Warren G. to perform at the Southside Oktoberfest Grounds.
Some fans paid as much as $100 to see the legendary rap groups, who were supposed to perform during the “Hip-Hop 2011 Monsters of Hip-Hop Show,” which was scheduled for August 20th.
Cypress Hill's official website called the show “a fraud,” while Naughty by Nature reps confirmed the show was bogus, since the group will be in Japan.
As for Warren G, the West Coast legend is slated to be in Europe on tour, during the date in question.
Organizers finally got in touch with official representatives for Cypress Hill, but were unable to reschedule a date with the group.
As a result, the show has been canceled.
