Tyler, the Creator and Odd Future were set to join Eminem at Rapture Festival in New Zealand, but as 3 News reports, the collective's entry visas into the country have been revoked. They've been called "a potential threat to public order".
In a statement to 3 News, Immigration New Zealand said:
Quote:
"The Immigration Act 2009 provides that entry permission may not be granted where there is reason to believe there is, or is likely to be, a threat or risk to public order or the public interest."
"Odd Future has been deemed to be a potential threat to public order and the public interest for several reasons, including incidents at past performances in which they have incited violence. In one instance, a police officer was hospitalised following a riot incited by Odd Future."
