Kid Cudi’s injury he sustained during his set at Coachella on Sunday is more serious than he initially thought.

In a post on Instagram on Wednesday he revealed he broke his calcaneus, which is the heel bone, during his fall offstage, and he’s head into surgery. He also said this will require a “long recovery time.”

He then dropped somber news.

“We have to cancel the tour so I can focus on getting better to be out there in top shape to rage with you all,” his statement continued. “There’s just no way I can bounce back in time to give 100%.”

Over the weekend, Cudi fell after he jumped over a barrier to get into the crowd during his song “Memories.” The injury caused him to cut his set short and he had to be carried off by security.

“The injury is much more serious than I thought,” he said.

His performance at the Indio, California arts and music festival was added to the Weekend 2 schedule just days before his performance.

Fans who purchased tickets to his Insano Engage the Rage Tour will get a full refund and should receive an email soon, he explained.

Cudi, born Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi, assured everyone that new tour dates will be announced “as soon as possible.”

“I can’t wait to get back there with you guys and turn up how we do,” he continued.

He then apologized to his fans while also thanking them for the kind words during this tough time.

“I’m so sorry fam and I love you all so much, thanks for the endless love and support. I’m really disappointed as I’m sure you guys are too, but I will be back. That’s a promise.

As for his condition, the “Pursuit of Happiness” singer said he’s okay, a little sore, but in “good spirits.”
