Weekend KaTeezyInsane, no one saw it coming, and Taylor going cray in the audiance too ?? what timeline were we in ???
I think that performance was made better by the fact that it was a song being debuted
But his vocals weren't that good there(Ye had been hyping up All Day for a while & we had only heard the LQ leak prior to that)
Although it is cool that the performance had a lore since one of the flamethrowers didn't work & Stormzy getting dissed inspired the start of his Shut Up song

public reception wise it was a big "return to form" after the general public backlash to yeezus too - which started the whole swish/so help me god/tlop era

humeyLate Orchestration*, & that one 808s performance I can’t place that had me on the verge of tears
808s Hollywood Bowl (2015) is the one. I have never watched this performance and not been moved to tears.
Brilliant staging by Vanessa Beecroft.
