Kanye West announced an NYC event for his upcoming album Vultures on Thursday – and shared a bizarre clip from the lead single’s controversial music video.
The rapper, 46, who has come under fire for Vultures’ anti-Semitic lyrics, shared a post which read ‘Vultures UBS Arena New York 02 09 24.;
The star then shared a video clip of ‘VULTURES (Havoc Version) created by Jon Rafman’ which featured post-apocalyptic scenes, a masked Kanye brandishing a gun and a burning church.
The father-of-four went on to upload an image of the number ‘1’ on his account, most likely a nod to Vultures, Volume One, which he previously announced was dropping on February 9.
Both West, 46, and Sucker for Pain hitmaker, 41, also shared an image, which read: ‘Vultures United Center Chicago 02 08 24.’
At this time, United Center does not any events set for Thursday.
The Chicago Blackhawks, however, are scheduled to play at the stadium on Wednesday and Friday.
Back in 2021, ahead of the release of his tenth studio album Donda, he previously hosted multiple listening parties for fans in Chicago and Atlanta.
His single, Vulture, off the record, has been slammed by Jewish organizations who branded him ‘pathetic and sad’ over vile lyrics about a Jewish woman.
Vultures features the ‘offensive’ lyrics: ‘How am I anti-Semitic? I just f***ed a Jewish b****.’
The lyrics prompted a furious backlash among some fans and was even condemned by the American Jewish Committee, among others.
