Kanye West Cannot Book Venues For Concerts, Here’s Why

Kanye West, or Ye, is facing some hurdles in booking venues for his latest music performances. Reports suggest that he’s having trouble securing arenas and other venues to showcase his new music. The trouble seems to stem from his past controversial remarks, particularly those deemed anti-semitic.

In an Instagram story, Kanye hinted at being sidelined by arena owners due to his previous headline-making comments. He expressed frustration at only being able to secure his hometown arena, the United Center, for his performances.

Despite his efforts, he claims to face resistance when trying to book other venues, with some owners citing unavailability. Kanye strongly implied that his past comments might be the reason behind this resistance.

In a recent video message to his Instagram followers, Kanye started on a positive note by announcing a sold-out show at the United Center. However, he swiftly shifted to addressing the venue booking issue, seeking assistance from his fans and followers. He highlighted the challenge of finding alternative venues and hinted that his past controversies might be to blame for the lack of availability.

As Kanye grapples with these challenges, he’s also gearing up for the release of his upcoming album, ‘Vultures Vol.1,’ in collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign. Despite the venue setbacks, the duo plans to host a listening party at the United Center in Chicago. The album will be available to the public later the same day.

In a separate Instagram post, Kanye likened his current situation to an Elvis Presley movie, indicating his frustration at being sidelined from performing for a year. The post reflects his feelings of being restricted in his career endeavours, akin to the struggles depicted in the Elvis Presley movie referenced.
