Bad news for fans! It appears that the highly-anticipated Young Money reunion show won't push through anymore after Drake made a shocking announcement online regarding his health.

Taking to his official Instagram account, the Toronto-based rapper revealed he's "devastated" after testing positive for COVID-19.

However, he assured fans that his team is doing its best to reschedule the show as soon as possible.

"I am truly devastated to say that I tested positive for Covid and the Young Money Reunion show scheduled for tonight is being rescheduled to the SOONEST date possible," he wrote. (via Rolling Stone)

He added that he would keep the city posted and share the new scheduled date when everything's settled.

The Young Money reunion concert was initially scheduled for August 1 at the Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Canada.

The show was supposed to be the finale for his successful October World Weekend.

"I am so sorry for letting you down on our weekend together and the moment I test negative I will give you everything I got on stage (except the Covid)," he concluded the post, saying he loves his fans.

His three-day festival started last week with an "All Canadian North Stars" show featuring some of the talented artists from his home country like Keshia Chanté, Choclair, Kardinal Offishall, k-os, and many more.

The rapper went viral recently as the event featured the legendary Nelly Furtado.

In early reports, the two Canadian artists sang the singer's Grammy Award-winning track "I'm Like A Bird" as fans joined them while cheering.

Many fans immediately took to social media to react to their interaction, saying they made "Canadian history."

The performance didn't stop there as Furtado later performed one of the biggest songs from her catalog, "Promiscuous" featuring Timbaland.

For the second show, Drake featured two headlining acts featuring Lil Baby and Chris Brown.

This isn't the first time the "Take Care" rapper tested positive for COVID as he revealed last year that the reason why he had a heart-shaped cut-out on his hairline was because of the virus' side effects.

"I had Covid that shit grew in weird I had to start again. It's coming back, don't diss," he wrote.

As of this writing, Drake has not revealed an official rescheduled date for his Young Money reunion show, Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj had also not reacted on the matter.
