Did Kanye West Finally Perform In a Festival After Dropping Out of Coachella in 2022?

For the last decade, Kanye West [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/kanye-west]
was known for his creativity and insane performances. However, his controversial
takes and behavior seemed to put a stop to that. While the rapper has finally
made his musical comeback with ‘Vultures 1′ and various listening parties since
last year, fans have been hoping for a live performance. Surprisingly for them,
the Yeezy creator made an appearance at a festival recently.

Although Ye was spotted at the venue near Los Angeles’ SoFi stadium, the
question remained; did the father of four finally perform for the first time
since he bailed on his Coachella performance in 2022?


KANYE WEST’S FESTIVAL COMEBACK

A few weeks ago, it was reported that Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign could be
headlining the Rolling Loud festival. While the rapper chose not to confirm it,
various posts on X (formerly Twitter) proved his presence at the music festival.
The artist and his collaborator opened the 2024 edition of the event by taking
the stage. However, instead of performing tracks from ‘Vultures 1’ live, they
gave fans another listening party.

Although some fans were excited to check out the album with West, others seemed
rather let down by confusion. With the 46-year-old keeping his energy to a
minimum, the set turned out to be a disappointment. The ‘Good Morning’ artist
could be seen wearing black jeans with a leathery-looking jacket. He even added
some black boots but chose to go maskless to complete his look.

While festival-goers were outraged about West’s rather low-energy performance,
the rapper and Ty Dolla $ign ended up defending their controversial performance.


KANYE WEST DEFENDS HIS ROLLING LOUD LISTENING PARTY

Kanye West has always been one to speak his mind. However, not everything that
he has said over the years has been taken well by his fans. Now again, the
rapper has found himself in a sticky situation. After his Rolling Loud
appearance turned out to be another listening party for his ‘Vultures 1’ album,
the 46-year-old stated on Big Boy TV why he preferred performing without a mic.

West claimed that he believed, “People just came for the experience.” While he
might be right to be focusing on what he was creating for his fans, the father
of four also added that his listening parties were “still better than other
people shows that have a mic.”
