A UK drill artist Digga D - Rhys Herbert - has announced that he will no longer be performing at Reading and Leeds Festival 2024 - despite hopes that he would be able to attend.

A post published on the artists' social media channels said: “Management from Digga has a message for his fans…

“I am really sorry I am not going to be able to be with you at Reading and Leads festival this year.

“We had hoped that it would have [been] possible but it hasn’t been.

“I need to deal with the situation I am in but promise you once this is behind me, I will be making up for lost time. Thank you to every single one of you for your patience and most importantly your support - keep writing to me.”

The 23-year-old is facing legal issues after admitting to two drug charges following a police raid during an online performance on February 21.
