We Major, indeed.
Kanye West‘s long-awaited Yeezus tour began on Saturday in Seattle, and, as one might expect, few stops were left unpulled. Despite starting two hours late, apparently due to a stolen equipment truck, Kanye’s two hour set managed to cram in 27 songs spanning his full career.
More striking, however, were the rapper’s stage design and set pieces. As evident from the pictures (courtesy of ChildishvGambino) and videos below, the set boasted a giant mountain, which Kanye intermittently rapped from the summit of. An array of masked dancers also featured, as did – wait for it – a cameo from a Jesus impersonator during ‘Jesus Walks’.
Kendrick Lamar opened proceedings with a nine song set. Bad news for the people of Vancouver, though – Sunday’s show at the Rogers arena was pulled due to “unforeseen circumstances.”
The full tracklist for both sets is below, courtesy of Kanye To The.
