The Ohio State Fair cancelled the singer’s July 28 performance shortly after he made the cancer announcement, indicating he might be off the road at least through next month.

Although Keith has been a well-liked country musician since the beginning of the 1990s, his major break came in 1999 with the publication of his smash hit single How Do You Like Me Now?

The song peaked at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles list, demonstrating the single’s considerable crossover appeal. It was the number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.

Keith received the National Medal of Arts from then-President Donald Trump in January 2021, just after the House of Representatives voted to remove Trump from office for a second time. Trump had been Keith’s supporter.
