Kanye West mostly interacted with fans via social media posts in recent months. Seems like Kanye wanted to interact with his fans physically while treating them to his music. Kanye recently made an unexpected appearance during Playboy Carti’s performance.
He shared the stage with Playboi Carti during the “Magnolia” rapper’s set at Rolling Loud NYC 2022 on Friday, September 23. The masked rappers performed their hit “Off The Grid,” off Kanye’s tenth studio album, before a huge crowd. Playboi Carti even jumped into the mosh pit surrounded by fans throughout the lit show.
Earlier this week, the fashion designer appeared on Good Morning America for a rare interview. During the interview, he discussed everything from his current feud with Gap to his relationship with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian. Shortly after the interview, Ye’ became a trending topic after revealing that Sway had the answers in 2013 when the radio host urged him to incorporate his Yeezy brand into his own. “I will go ahead and say that Sway had the answer,” the DONDA rapper shared.
The performance comes after the music festival removed three drill rappers from the lineup at the request of the NYPD. This isn’t the first time the New York Police Department has removed musicians from the Rolling Loud bill due to “public safety concerns.” Casanova, Pop Smoke, Sheff G, Don Q, and 22Gz were dropped from the lineup in 2019 due to alleged affiliations to “recent acts of violence citywide.” Fetty Wap was arrested and brought into custody by the FBI prior to last year’s show.
The NYPD has yet to issue an explanation for the removal of drill rappers 22Gz, Sha Ek, and Ron Suno from this year’s NYC show. To get the latest updates, keep an eye on Thirsty.
