He also mentioned that his team would reschedule the show.
While Aldean is doing better, the country artist remained in the media after his video for Try That In A Small Town sparked controversy.
Though Aldean is a survivor of a mass shooting in 2017, his newest song which was released on Friday, July 14, was perceived as favoring gun violence.
As a result, Country Music Television has pulled his video from airing on its network.
Lyrics to Try That In A Small Town
The lyrics to his song read:
Cuss out a cop, spit in his face
Stomp on the flag and light it up
Yeah, ya think you're tough
Well, try that in a small town
See how far ya make it down the road
Around here, we take care of our own
You cross that line, it won't take long
For you to find out, I recommend you don't
Try that in a small town
Though the artist has received backlash, Aldean took to Twitter to speak his mind.
He said: "While I can try and respect others to have their own interpretation of a song with music - this one goes too far."
When the song was initially released, Aldean's video was accompanied by a statement saying: "When u grow up in a small town, it's that unspoken rule of 'we all have each other's backs and we look out for each other.'
"It feels like somewhere along the way, that sense of community and respect has gotten lost.
