The entertainment company says refunds will be issued, stating on the TicketTek retailer website that "extensive efforts" to reschedule the shows "within the necessary timeframe was not possible."

It added that Drake remains committed to performing in the countries again "when his schedule permits."

Drake blamed a "scheduling conflict" when he sidelined the tour, which was his first since a crippling spat with rap rival Kendrick Lamar.

At the opening show Feb. 4 in Perth, he walked onto the stage wearing a black hoodie that appeared to be punctured by bullet holes, the mock wounds on his back pouring out theatrical smoke.

A few shows later, he handed out cash to a few lucky fans, which attracted so much attention that people started showing up with signs begging him for financial aid.

The Anita Max Win tour stalled out shortly after that, and he postponed the last four shows.

Ticketholders were offered refunds or the opportunity to hang onto their tickets for rescheduled dates that never materialized.

Since then, Drake has performed elsewhere.

In June, he surprised fans of Morgan Wallen with an appearance at the controversial country star's second tour date in Houston. He then took the stage with the Backstreet Boys a few weeks later in Toronto, where the boy band jokingly welcomed him as their "sixth member."

He also made a guest appearance at rapper Central Cee's concert in Toronto, telling the audience that his star-studded hip-hop concert OVO Fest would return this summer. So far, dates have not been announced.

Drake is currently co-headlining a European tour with his collaborator PartyNextDoor that continues through September.
