Recent developments have indicated a shift in plans for the anticipated 'Vultures' album listening sessions featuring Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign. The upcoming large-scale playbacks scheduled for arenas in Tampa, Fort Lauderdale, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Charlotte, and Washington, D.C., in April have been canceled abruptly. The cancellations were announced shortly after the initial promotion, leaving fans disappointed.
A representative for Kanye West confirmed the cancellation of the shows, although Kanye himself has remained silent on the matter, having deactivated his Instagram account over the weekend. The decision to call off the gigs follows a wave of negative feedback stemming from the duo's performance at the Rolling Loud Festival in Inglewood, Calif. Attendees were promised a live performance but were instead presented with a playback of 'Vultures 1' tapes, with Kanye and Ty Dolla Sign merely present on stage wearing masks.
