Through his young career, Brooklyn rhymer Joey Bada$$ has always been synonymous with thought provoking lyrics and salient wisdom for his age. Maybe all wisdom doesn’t translate as quickly, because on Monday the Pro-Era MC ended up canceling shows in Cleveland, Chicago and Toronto due to “unforseen circumstances” – simple enough, right?
Due to unforeseen circumstances, my Cleveland, Chicago & Toronto shows on the #EverybodyTour are cancelled.

Yet when juxtaposed with a series of tweets earlier in the afternoon, it appears Joey may have decided to ignore the one consistent piece of advice every scientist has given about the monumental occasion, attributing his experience “sun gazing” as proof. (By the way, sun gazing is not done during eclipses, and is typically practiced for seconds at a time at sunrise or sunset, if you were wondering)
Am I crazy for watching the eclipse today w no glasses? I’ve sungazed before and afterwards saw colors for a whole day. I didn’t die tho

This ain’t the first solar eclipse and I’m pretty sure our ancestors ain’t have no fancy eyewear. Also pretty sure they ain’t all go blind.

Did sun staring block the young star from doing his shows? You be the judge!
