Kanye West plans SoFi Stadium concert ahead of ‘Bully’ release

Rapper and producer Kanye West, now known as Ye, is preparing for a major return to the U.S. stage with a stadium performance in Los Angeles.

The Chicago-born artist will take over SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on April 3, marking his first American stadium show since the 2021 Free Larry Hoover Benefit Concert.

The upcoming performance arrives ahead of his anticipated album Bullywhich is expected later this month.

Pre-sale tickets are set to open on March 10 via Ticketmaster, with general sales beginning the following day. The venue’s official calendar lists the event as “Ye Live in Los Angeles” and describes it as the rapper’s only scheduled show in the city.

A promotional page linked to West’s Yeezy brand has also surfaced online, encouraging fans to pre-save Bully, which will be released through Gamma.

The concert follows a pair of sold-out shows in Mexico City earlier this year and precedes another planned performance in Italy this July. It remains unclear whether the Los Angeles date signals a broader North American return.

West’s live comeback comes after years of controversy tied to antisemitic remarks that cost him partnerships with Adidas, Gap, and Balenciaga, among others. In recent months, the artist has attempted to repair relations, including issuing a public apology in The Wall Street Journal.
