On stage, Ye delivered chaos and control in equal measure. During ‘Good Life,’ he abruptly stopped the show to address disco-style lighting issues, snapping:

“This is corny bro”

Before stopping the song again to question:

“Is this an SNL skit or something?… We went over this in rehearsal bro.”

Then apologizing to the crowd before resetting the vibe and carrying out the performance.

That wasn’t the only show stopper of the night; he also brought out North West, who confidently hit the stage to perform ‘Piercing On My Hand’, sending the crowd into a frenzy.

With another show at the SoFi Stadium on April 3 and a major Wireless Festival headline slot this summer, West’s ‘Bully’ era is clearly just getting started.
