That two of the biggest rappers in the genre’s history came together in support of a prisoner with next to no realistic chance of being released was fitting, somehow. Sometimes it takes a look at the intractable circumstances of others to reveal the insignificance of petty arguments between friends.
The show started in a particularly ecclesiastical stance. Ye’s Sunday Service choir ran through a set of hits, reworded for piety: the Fugees’ “Ready or Not,” Adele’s “Easy on Me,” Soul 2 Soul’s “Back 2 Life.” Just before Ye took the stage, the choir delivered a rousing rendition of “Ultralight Beam,” from the rapper’s transcendentopening, Kanye’s set was a nostalgia-laced affair.
Last night’s festivities for once had a genuine feeling of celebration, instead of the kind of forced corporate joy that’s come to define so much live music. The event caps off a particularly tumultuous year for the stratum of rap on which both Kanye and Drake reside. The tragedy at Travis Scott’s Astroworld is still fresh in rap fans’ minds, as is the death of Virgil Abloh, whose name rang out of the L.A. Coliseum at various moments in the night.
Nothing to see here
Don't understand what the big deal is about either 1 of em geez
Kanye for President, or else.
Overhyped bullshit rappers
Ye needs a subpoena.
If this doesn't scream the death of hip hop idk what does
My god modern music is fucking awful
Waaayyy too much smoke during the entire performance. Those smoke machines ruined the show.
They spent the last year beefing with eacother? 🤷🏽♀️😂
Who. Cares.
