LOS ANGELES — Kanye West has bailed on Coachella, where he was to have headlined both of the music festival’s two weekends later this month, The Times has confirmed.
The cancellation leaves the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival with only two weeks to find a new headliner, as West was booked for April 17 and 24. Travis Scott was to have joined the rapper — now known as Ye — but he won’t perform either, according to TMZ, which first reported the news.
Reps for West and for Coachella did not respond immediately to The Times’ request for confirmation or comment Monday.
