More than a decade on since his last performance on U.K soil, Kanye West (aka ‘Ye‘) will perform in London once again this Summer, heralding a special headline set at Wireless Festival across three consecutive nights in July. Following recent announcements regarding the Ye European tour, which will see Kanye perform in various cities such as Madrid and Marseille, speculation has been building over whether or not the U.S rapper would once again touch down in London Town, following on from his iconic 2015 performance at Glastonbury Festival in the South-West of England.
An annual rap and hip-hop festival which featured the likes of Drake and Burna Boy last year, Wireless Festival has long been regarded as the go-to event in London for urban music, securing a home at the legendary Finsbury Park, a short walking distance from Arsenal Football Club. This year’s edition now looks set to sell-out instantly, such is the anticipation surrounding the return of King Kanye between 10th-12th July. With full details available via YeWireless.com, the PayPal pre-sale went live this morning, with two more sale windows opening up for fans over the next week.
Fans of Kanye West are already taking to socials to declare their joy at the London return of their hero. Ye recently dropped his ‘BULLY’ album which has already been praised for a typically artistic and intriguing music video on lead single, ‘Father‘, which you can watch here.
