Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, had a rebirth this year with his epic return riding on the wings of ‘Vultures’. Following the wild success of the first part of his 2024 album, all eyes are on what the rapper has in store for fans next. But before he unleashes the next wave of hits, Ye will be finishing another lap around the sun. As he inches closer to turning 47, it seems he had been planning to throw the bash of the century for his big day, with an epic concert.

It looks like, however, the rapper already got the blow of some disappointment before the candles even got a chance to sparkle.

Ye reportedly had his sights set on throwing an epic $5 Million bash in Moscow to ring in his 47th birthday next month. As reported by  Russian insiders at Mash Telegram, he was supposed to be performing at the Atlanta Summer Festival, transforming Luzhniki Stadium into a party paradise on June 8, perfectly timed with his birthday. However, representatives from the stadium soon denied any such concert. Eduard Ratnikov shared with Russia's TASS, he had communicated directly with Ye a few months ago.

"But it ended with nothing because it is an absolutely empty story”, said the TCI concert agency founder. Producer Yana Rudkovskaya, who says she was directly involved in talks with Ye, also stated in a Telegram post that the event organizers and the musician could not reach an agreement on the fee. However, she hinted that a Ye performance in Moscow might not be completely out of the question and could happen later, maybe as early as fall 2024.  In the meantime, Ye has been stretching his fans' patience to its limits with the anticipation of his next drop.

It has become a bit of a pattern for Ye to miss his own deadlines. He enjoys keeping fans on their toes before finally gracing them with his musical creations. The saga continued with the second volume of 'Vultures'. Originally planned for release on March 8, Ye's album 'Vultures 2' did not hit the shelves as expected. Despite Ye's promise of a May 3 release later, fans were left hanging once again when the album failed to make its debut.

The day after the album was supposed to drop, fans flooded social media, sharing their disappointment through hilarious meme trends. Despite the initial frustration, they managed to find a way to laugh through it. And if Ye's rumored Russian concert on his birthday does happen, it could be the sweet relief fans need from the 'Vultures 2' waiting game.
