Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, recently made a grand symphonic entrance in Japan. However, fans were left disappointed due to the delayed announcement of 'Vultures 2' and his reluctance to use a microphone during performances. Frustration and waning hope among fans had them ready to abandon the 'Vultures' world tour altogether. Yet, like a silver lining in the clouds, a new update emerged, suggesting that the Atlanta rapper might be planning a live performance with Rich the Kid and Ty Dolla $ign at the upcoming Paris Fashion Week. 

This news came from an insider shortly after Ye's underwhelming Wangmania performance.

GoodAssSub on X recently reported, through insider Saint Leon, that Ty Dolla $ign will be in Paris for Fashion Week and has a live event scheduled. Additionally, Rich the Kid is set to host a listening party that same Saturday, notably on June 22. While Leon mentioned rumors of Ye also being in Paris for Fashion Week, he could not confirm the same yet. Moreover, with Ty Dolla $ign having a live event scheduled and Rich the Kid hosting a listening party, it is unclear whether these are separate events or one and the same.

Paris Fashion Week runs from June 18 to June 23, this year. Although this information concerning their live performance has not been publicly announced, the insider suggests that it will be soon. Therefore, confirmation of Ye's presence during the live performance is still pending, but the upcoming public announcement might clear up any doubts.

Despite being a good news of sorts since fans have missed Ye on stage for long, his Wangmania performance a day ago has made the turnover for the upcoming event skeptical.

Ye recently surprised his fans with an unannounced appearance at Wangmania, a pro-wrestling event in Tokyo, Japan with 88Keys and fashion designer Alexander Wang. Not only did West attend the event, but he also wowed fans with an energetic performance featuring tracks from 'Vultures 1'. However, with scarce updates on 'Vultures 2', fans were dismayed by his apparent prioritization of other activities over the record.

Following his performance, fans mercilessly trolled him, highlighting how his biggest challenges now seem to be release dates and the microphone. While the former is self-explanatory, the latter refers to his microphone-less performance at the wrestling ring and his aversion to pick one up. As such, there is hope that the upcoming live performance in Paris will differ from the Wangmania event, as fans are tired of listening parties and are expecting a true live performance.
