On Wednesday (Dec. 27), Solange revealed on Instagram that she'll be canceling her Afropunk performance at New Year's Eve in South Africa because of her battle with an autonomic disorder.

"Wrote, deleted and re wrote this like 5 times...Still not sure what exactly or how much I want to share...However it?s so important to me for the people in South Africa, a place that has tremendous meaning to me and that has given me SO SO MUCH, to know why I won?t be performing at Afro Punk this NYE. The past five months I have been quietly treating, and working through an Autonomic Disorder," she begins her lengthy Instagram post.

She later divulges details about how her doctors refused to clear her for "such an extended lengthy flight," and that doing a "rigorous show right after" wouldn't be in her best interest.

"It been a journey that hasn?t been easy on me," she writes." Sometimes I feel cool, and other times not so cool at all. It?s a complicated diagnoses , and I?m still learning so much myself, but right now, my doctors are not clearing me for such an extended lengthy flight, and doing a rigorous show right after."

Having delivered a smoldering performance last August at the NY edition of Afropunk, a somber Solange vowed to the fans of South Africa that she would return imminently, despite her recent setback.

"I can?t put into words how saddened and sorry I am that I am unable to perform for you guys this NYE, there is simply no other place I wanted to be than there with my family to bring in 2018 with you.......but I give you my ABSOLUTE WORD I will come back with AfroPunk and deliver this performance.....as it is so extremely important to me to connect with the people who have so closely inspired me in so many ways."

I can?t thank Afro Punk enough for their support, and to all of the other festivals this past summer/fall who have known about my health, kept it confidential, and gone out of their way to make me feel supported while doing these shows. As a part of the self care that I?ve tried to encourage this past year, it needs to start with myself, and I?m looking forward to doing a better job of this 2018. This past year has been one of the most fulfilling of my life... Performing this record and experiencing the energy exchange with you guys has been astounding, and I?m so excited about continuing to do the work I feel so absolutely humbled and appreciative to be doing next year. It gives me life.

I never thought you'd be a 'za.  does that guy u used to talk to know that u fuck with her music now?

Bless Solange?s heart. Lifting her up. It?s beautiful to know she?s being so transparent with her platform because it?s affirmation to know that you can have the world at your hands and still not be fulfilled or perhaps deal with some disorder. It?s affirmative for me. Praying for sis?s healing.
