Leading up to the launch of the debut volume of ‘Vultures’ on February 9th, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign announced listening experience in Chicago. Despite having secured access to The United Center in Chicago, Ye desired access to more arenas. Recently, Kanye West appealed to his followers on social media, expressing his wish for additional venues, stating “there’s no avails for me“.

Earlier, the duo teased a potential listening party at the United Center on February 8th through separate social media posts. Reports confirmed that this event sold out all tickets in a mere 7 minutes. However, Kanye West is eager to expand this celebration. Kanye West’s YEWS news platform also relayed this news. Furthermore, the outlet reported that ticket sales have been organic, indicating that the collaborative artists haven’t actively promoted sales.

Additionally, the post also mentioned that the Center can accommodate up to 23,500 individuals. The “listening experience” will offer a premium shared experience between listeners and collaborators before the album’s release. Attendees at the event will have the opportunity to listen to the tracks alongside the artists and collaborators. While attendees will get an early dive into the album experience, the public release will be on February 9th at 11 PM CST following the global launch.

This is not the first time that Kanye West has faced challenges in securing access to arenas for his performances. Last year, he faced similar challenges and was not permitted to hold stage concerts.

Kanye West could not perform for an entire year

Kanye West had avoided hosting stage concerts in the last year. Recently, West disclosed that he was not “allowed” to perform. He shared about feeling like “the Elvis Presley movie” for not having been allowed to perform in a year. A representative also confirmed to Variety in 2022 that the rapper had been prevented from performing due to his “concerning online behavior“.

Towards the end of January, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign revealed that the upcoming album would be released in three volumes. Volume one is scheduled to drop on Friday, while volumes two and three are set for release on March 8 and April 5, respectively. After several delays, including two listening events over the past three months, the album is finally hitting the airwaves.
