Update: Kanye West's Sunday night show at The Forum in
Inglewood, Calif., has been canceled, according to Ticketmaster.com and the
venue. The concert was a makeup for a Nov. 3 performance cut short when West
lost his voice.
Just days after his concert spiel in support of Donald
Trump made waves, Kanye West found a way to upset his fanbase even more: complain
about Beyoncé and cut a concert short......
Saturday night, West performed a stop of his Saint Pablo
tour at Sacramento's Golden 1 Center. There, according to fans, he started
late, played a few songs, brought out Kid Cudi, ranted and left early. Part of
West's expletive-laden speech from the stage was captured on social media.
West went from the topic of radio, how Kid Cudi is great
and which groups inspire Kanye (Fader has a transcript of the NSFW speech
here), to dissing Bey and Jay.
"Beyoncé, I was hurt, because I heard that you said
you wouldn't perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and over Hotline
Bling. In my opinion, 'Now, don't go trying to diss Beyonce. She is great.
Taylor Swift is great.' We are all great people. We are all people. But,
sometimes, we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are, just
to win. (Expletive) winning. (Expletive) looking cool. (Expletive) being
cool."
Seeming to realize that his fans weren't taking to his
words, West added, "I been sent here to give y'all my truth, even at the
risk of my own life, my own success, my own career."
Then, he turned to Jay Z: "Call me, brah, you still
ain't call me. Jay Z, I know you got killas, please don't send them at my head.
Just call me. Talk to me like a man."
"Press,
get ready to have a field day because this show is over." ---- Kanye
dropping the mic and walking off stage. #SaintPabloTour

Fans, including a Sacramento Kings player, were none too
pleased that West ranted and then rushed off the stage.
Some of the
Sacramento Kings were at that Kanye concert. Here's Boogie: "HE BOUNCED ON
US YO!" 😂😢😬

Making your
fans pay for a whole concert then performing only 2 songs is disrespectful

After West departed, fans chanted "(Expletive) you,
Kanye!"
The Golden 1 Center sent a tweet that guests should
"travel home safely" after West ended his show, but have not shared
any more information after promising to do so.
