Best Of The Best Festival Clarifies Tarrus Riley’s Removal

Share
Organisers of Best Of The best Music Festival, has sought to clarify the removal of Tarrus Riley from this year's staging.
In a statement yesterday, organisers say they were not aware of Riley's booking for a free event in South Florida until last week.
They say that after becoming aware of the booking, the decision was made out of respect for both the artistes and his supporters.
This, as the free concert is scheduled just 35 minutes away and just few days after Best of The Best Music Fest.
They say that its only fair to allow fans the opportunity to enjoy that experience without having to choose between the two.
Tarrus Riley had previously expressed disappointment at not being able to perform after being officially contracted and advertised by the event promoters.
