During his appearance at Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw festival at Dodger Stadium on Saturday night (November 22), Donald Glover revealed publicly for the first time that he suffered a stroke during his 2024 New World Tour which caused him to cancel the remainder of his Childish Gambino dates. “I had a really bad pain in my head in Louisiana, and I did the show anyway. I couldn’t really see well,” Glover recalled onstage during his Gambino set. “So when we went to Houston, I went to the hospital, and the doctor was like, ‘You had a stroke.’” Doctors also discovered that the musician had a hole in his heart alongside a broken foot. “So, I had this surgery, and then I had to have another surgery,” he shared, which ultimately led to the cancellation of the remainder of his 2024 tour in order to focus on his health. Reflecting on his experience, Glover encouraged his fans, “You got one life, guys. You should be living your life how you want.” (Rolling Stone)
