Kanye West Walks Out from Sacramento Concert After an Hour Long Speech Against Beyonce and Jay Z
Kanye West walks out from his concert in Sacramento, California after his long rants against Jay Z and Beyonce. The concert is packed with 13,000 fans. Kanye ended his speech with "Get ready to have a field day, press, because the show's over," and drops the microphone.
People, who paid around $250, were badly disappointed on the rapper's behavior. They left the venue cursing Kanye. But the fans' annoyance started even before the rapper's long rant. Some witnesses say that they had to wait for more than an hour before Kanye appeared on stage. The hip hop artist performed three songs, and then he started insulting Beyonce's winning at the MTV Video Music Awards.
At one point, Kanye stopped his rant to lambast a fan after flinging something into his stage. He also commented about Taylor Swift, and said that they are doing great. He also added "But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forget who we are just to win", and started throwing profanities aimed against Beyonce and Jay Z. Kanye even asked Jay Z to call him and revealed "I know you got killers. Please don't send them at my head,"
Kanye compared his nearly an hour rant to Trump's Twitter blasts. He added that he would have voted for Trump if only he had exercised his democratic rights. The crowd booed him after.
The hiphop artist even includes the radio industry in his rant. He bashed the programmers for playing too much of mainstream artists like Drake. He said that they could have given more air time to lesser known talents. He said, "Drake is great, he's a great artist, but Frank Ocean is great, too." After leaving the concert venue, Kanye posed for a selfie with a fan.
