Singer August Alsina recent brawl with concert promoters gets cleared up after sources say the "No Love" star became irate when the business side of things fell through.

A source close to the singer told Bossip.com, "The rumor about [August] not wanting to go on before Migos is completely false. August had no issue going on before Migos. He was scheduled to go on after them but because he had a band, he went on first with no problem. The issue at hand is bad business."

The source added, that August grew upset when he wasn't paid on time which led him to go on stage late keeping his loyal fans waiting, "A tactic of many bad promoters is to wait until the last minute to pay the artist, taking money off of the door rather than paying them when they arrive in town. When this happens, you end up paying the artist late, which makes the show run late." Source added, "Slim didn't have ‎August's money on time; that's why he was late to the stage."
