If you buy tickets to a Kanye show you shouldn't be surprised if he rants for a while, and he literally shows up to every show 90 minutes late (it's to drive merch sales)

To his defense, they did tell him to shut the fuck up, so he listened. His logic must be, "you can't fuck with the message of the show, you don't get the show"

It's fucked up and people deserve a refund, but it is what it is. If my audience were booing me I'd probably leave too. He don't owe anyone shit except a refund tbh.
Lol is this a joke post?

They told him to shut the fuck up because he wasn't doing his job (performing). People didn't pay real money out of their own pockets to hear him rant about feuds with celebrities and how Hillary lost and how he didn't vote or that Trump is great. He knew what he was doing. He showed up to a liberal town and gave them all the fucking finger by rubbing salt in a still fresh wound.

Then he gets pissed that they didn't like being totally mistreated by his bullshit/insulting comments.

Then he leaves. He's a disgusting piece of shit for doing this to his fans.

There is no defense for these actions.
 
You mean the music she can't legally do anymore?

So what the fuck are they paying money to listen to her for?!

I actually now think I he has a mental disorder that's more severe than I thought. That + his ego is terrible combination

How many perform three songs, complain for 15 mins and then leave?

I'm not defending that at all. I just see people continuously bringing him being late up, and I just flat out expect that when I see a rapper.

I remember one time I saw Curren$y and he was four hours late.

Four hours late? I would ask venue managaer to get my money back.

Him floating away on the stage ought to be a meme.

Spouting silly shit then floating away slowly and silently on a giant moving stage.

Fuck this dude. If I were Kim K I'd put Kanye in a choke hold and stuff my panties in his mouth every time he started talking.

I'm guessing Kanye thinks he started campaigning for 2020 already.

Dude is like Trump in that he has said so much crazy shit over the last few years that it's damn near impossible to separate out what he actually believes versus what he's just saying to get a rise out of folks. The sad part about that is, whenever he actually does say something that makes sense (like Obama needing to be perfect), it just gets drowned out by the crap he piles on top of it.

Like, does he actually think Khaled and Jay Z having assassins that are out to get him? I can't fucking tell. One thing's for sure, Kanye's only going to get weirder as he gets older. Like I half expect him and Tom DeLonge to write an open letter to congress to publicly acknowledge aliens and chem trails.

A lot of creative artists seem to be quite strange so I'm not surprised. Most are just good at hiding it and Kanye just isn't one of them. Definitely needs help

Always struck me as a man with alot of things to say, but is unable to pace his thoughts for it come out coherently.

Just imagine what Kim has to put up with.

Yup. Kanye is a moron. This is nothing new.

His support of Trump is whatever, but screwing over fans with a 30min show? get the fuck outta here
 

Zekes!

I feel bad for everyone who paid to have their time wasted. If they can they're money back at least it turns into a story for them to share down the line.

I'm glad I got to see Kanye when he was touring with Jay for the Watch the Throne tour. It was an excellent show.

Anyways, Kanye, more than ever, needs to dip from the limelight for a while. Take his kids and just chill somewhere and ground himself
 
My absolute disdain for the guy just took a turn... for the better. #preachit

This, I never cared for Kanye, especially the late Kanye, his music got shittier, his stupid marriage to Kim. This guy was going around pretending he was the next messiah, claiming he was the greatest thing alive, holier than thou, self proclaimed God's gift to humanity...Selling rebranded Fruit of the Loom white Ts for $100 +

And now he's using terms like "we're all equal" "I'm just a man" he seems humbled a bit and needless to say going against the grain.

He also seems quite inspired by Trump's aggressive attitude towards presidency, that much seems clear... And as crazy as he may seem, I doubt he totally admires Trump for his ideals and values etc. I think he just likes the guy's attitude and aggressiveness.

As for him ripping off his own audience, I thought this was a very common behaivor for this guy, just two years ago, he canceled a concert in Vancouver and pissed off half of the floor at my work. :)

Wait, there is nothing humble about him. What are you talking about? He doesn't even realize all of the kids who paid good money/waited for hours to see him.

Also, he should be over the 'liking Trump for his attitude and agressiveness', we should all be over that now that we are facing the dire consequences. You have to look at things beyond face value. It doesn't matter that he probably doesn't agree with every one of Trump/Pence's policies. But the fact that he glosses over that fact and just praises Trump means that he might as well agree with these policies.
 
#KanyeIsOverParty is trending with lots of silly people

if dude felt hurt before he ain't gonna like the backlash

Good maybe he'll shut up and stop saying he's going to run for president. The last thing we need is people writing in Kanye West name like they did for Harambe.

I want these fuccbois' votes.

It's impossible to know what's really going on in his head, but if he'd be happier with some "help" then I hope he finds some.

He's also pretty ignorant about why Obama's presidency wasn't as much of a success as it could've been if he thinks we need Republicans to come in and...well, do ANYTHING. It's sad how common of a sentiment that is, though.

I like a lot of Kanye's music, but beyond that he generally seems like a guy who bought his own press, who also needs to get back on his meds. Man needs a keeper.

I am sure the crowd got a refund, or at least the one's that complained.

It's not uncommon for mainstream pop stars to cancel shows last minute due to illness or other bullshit, Kanye has pulled this shit on his audience before, several times... Yeah it's not cool to do that to your fans, but I am not a fan of his music, just demonstrating the fact that he has a new attitude and approach to his fame...This was probably a one time stunt to get people's attention. Hope it's going to be more than him just showing up super late at his concerts, preaching for half hour and running away.
