Bobby Brown has cancelled an appearance following the release of daughter Bobbi Kristina’s autopsy on what would have been her 23rd birthday (March 4). The show that he cancelled was for the same day as the autopsy release, and Brown used Twitter to clear up any questions as to why he cancelled his concert.
“My Gastroenterologist has made the decision to keep me resting for another week,” Brown wrote on Twitter. “I recently had surgery and the recovery time has taken longer than expected.”

According to E!, the rapper had been slated to perform at Charleston Jam Fest this past Friday, which was happening at the North Charleston Coliseum & Performing Arts Center. Charleston Jam Fest also featured talents Keith Sweat, Jagged Edge and 112.
Brown’s next appearance is scheduled in Tampa, Florida for April and will feature Keith Sweat and Jagged Edge as well as H-Town.
After the release of Bobbi Kristina’s autopsy Brown released a statement to E! News that read, “First and foremost, 23 years ago today, Bobbi Kristina was born. Krissy will always live in my heart and soul. I love my baby girl. For news affiliates to seek and obtain my daughter’s autopsy report, before anyone has been brought to justice for her death is mind blowing to me. Please pray for my family.”
It is rumored that Brown is still struggling with substance abuse following the death of his ex-wife, Whitney Houston, and daughter. While his rep did not explicitly deny that Brown was doing a stint in rehab, he also did not reveal the type of treatment that the 47-year-old was currently receiving in the facility.
