Madlib is unable to perform his set at Coachella weekend one.

On Saturday evening, the festival announced the producer would be bowing out for "personal reasons," mere hours ahead of his "MadGibbs" performance with Freddie Gibbs on the Gobi Stage. Gibbs, however, will still appear for a solo set.

It's unclear whether Madlib will be able to play at Coachella weekend two.
