The 'Tupac Back' rapper allegedly leaves audiences at the University of Massachusetts Mullen Center hanging as he refuses to perform because there are less than 2,000 people in attendance.

AceShowbiz - Meek Mill has received a lot of complaints from his fans after he allegedly backed out of a concert at the last minute due to small crowd. The Philadelphia-born rapper was booked to perform at the University of Massachusetts Mullen Center on Saturday, March 7 as part of annual Blarney Blowout weekend, but reportedly refused to show up onstage because the number of attendees was smaller than he initially expected.

The Mullins Center holds a little under 10,000 people, but less than 2,000 people bought tickets, which were sold only between $10 and $15. Around 1,500 concertgoers reportedly were left hanging because the "Ima Boss" spitter bailed on the show, despite showing up at the venue.

Brandi Hephner LaBanc, UMass Amherst vice chancellor for student affairs, confirmed the news of Meek's withdrawal, stating, "Although the concert did not go as planned, students were very cooperative. We are equally disappointed in Meek Mill's decision not to perform. Refunds will be made available to ticketholders in the near future."

The concert was part of the university's anti-violence efforts during non-school sanctioned, off-campus parties celebrating the last weekend before Spring Break.

Disappointed concertgoers have since taken to Twitter to slam the rapper for showing unprofessional attitude. "Lost respect for @MeekMill," one person called him out. "today he pulled up to UMass for a concert students were looking forward to (especially students of color that came to see him), the crowd wasn't as large as he wanted it to be so he left and didn't perform. Unprofessional and selfish."

The said person continued bashing the rapper for not showing any remorse, "What's crazy is he is taking zero ownership. He been tweeting all day having a great time while students were waiting since 9am for him. Nope. Respect out the window."

"Deada**!" another person labeled the star. Seemingly not surprised, another tweeted, "I ain't even read nothing. I just saw 'lost respect for weak mills' and I clicked like. He trash." Another comment read, "Can't believe he did this weak mess... smh." Another person called him "weak and pathetic."

Another, meanwhile, trolled Meek for allegedly not having large fanbase in the area. "Damn. The place would've been packed woth students from every other school in the area had Nicki [Minaj] been performing there. Yikes," the said person wrote.

Some others, however, think that Meek was not completely to be blamed for the abrupt cancellation. "Unprofessional, yes. Selfish, no," one defended the rapper's attitude. Another said, "That happens all the time. Blame the promo team." Someone else weighed in, "Or blame he has no fans in that area."
