FreeFest updates: No Die Antwoord, no word on T.I.
No South African hip-hop at this year's FreeFest -- Die Antwoord has bailed (Photo courtesy of the artist.)

We're fixated on Virgin Mobile FreeFest today and have two new updates about the line-up for the Sept. 25 music festival taking place at Merriweather Post Pavilion.
Looks like South African hip-hop group Die Antwoord are no longer performing. The blogosphere tipped us off and promoters have confirmed that the group has backed out due to a scheduling conflict.
As for whether or not T.I. will perform after last night's arrest on drug charges in California, FreeFest promoters say they still don't have any news at this time.
