Kanye bashes Beyoncé in rant then walks off the stage
Kanye West is on a roll. First, he said he would vote for Trump in San Jose on Thursday, and last night, he walked out on his concert after going on a lengthy tirade against Jay Z and Beyoncé.
“Get ready to have a field day, press, because the show’s over,” said Kanye before dropping the microphone at the Golden 1 Center.
Fans were not impressed after having spent up to $250 on tickets to the Saint Pablo Tour. It didn’t help that they waited over an hour for the show to start. When he did get up on the stage, he sang only three songs — one of them was a repeat — before he left the stage for good.
In the rant he gave before leaving the stage, he suggested that Beyoncé’s win with “Formation” at the MTV Video Music Awards was rigged.

“Beyoncé, I was hurt,” he started before going on. “I heard that you said you wouldn’t perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and ‘Hotline Bling.’”
He went on to say that Beyoncé and Taylor Swift are great, “But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forget who we are just to win.”
After going on about two-faced celebrities, he encouraged Jay Z to talk to him “like a man,” before saying, “I know you got killers. Please don’t send them at my head.”

Kanye compared his Saturday stunt with Donald Trump’s middle-of-the-night Twitter posts. When he reiterated his support for Trump, he was booed once again.
Kanye’s rant did not end there, however. He also bashed the radio industry. He complained that programmers overplay mainstream artists like Drake rather than give air time to other, lesser-known artists.
“Drake is great, he’s a great artist, but Frank Ocean is great, too,” he stated. “But you know who the greatest of all of us? Kid (expletive) Cudi.”
He then had Kid Cudi join him on stage.

The Golden 1 Center did acknowledge what happened, but they have not yet offered refunds to concert goers.
Their statement was short and to the point, “We encourage all guests to travel home safely. More information to come.”
