At issue was Macias' participation in a pro-Israel rally in Paris this month amid the ongoing raids on Gaza, said a Lab Entertainment lawyer, Askok Radakissoon.
"This initiative was condemned by Mauritian political leaders and Islamic groups," he said, adding officials in the capital Port-Louis had also threatened not to allow the concert to take place.
The Indian Ocean island state announced last week it was freezing the activities of Israel's honorary consul to protest the Gaza raids.
