Danny Brown leaves Pretty Lights tour
Hip hop artist Danny Brown has left the Pretty Lights tour after Derek Vincent Smith described his actions in St. Louis as "weak." According to both artists' Twitter feeds, the St. Louis crowd was unreceptive to Danny's set and the sound system sounded like he was "playing outta a beats pill in the middle of a castle." Frustrated with the situation, the rapper allegedly threw his microphone at the crowd before leaving the stage.
