YEEZUS TOUR: Kanye West rants about "free advice" in Philly (VIDEO)


You could feel the anxiousness leading up to Kanye's first rant, which came during an extension of his "Runaway" cut from MBDTF. The chords play out harmoniously while Ye addresses the notions of "free advice", his documented disgust with corporations, and more candor. Hit the jump for some healthy gospel Ye, singing and ranting.

YEEZUS TOUR: Kanye West performs "Bound 2" in Philly (VIDEO)


Ye's last full song before his outro was the final song on the Yeezus album, the honorary single rumored to be debuting visuals during his upcoming appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres show. More candid than perhaps any set was "Bound 2". No masks or minions. Just Kanye.

YEEZUS TOUR: Kanye West performs "Flashing Lights" in Philly (VIDEO)


Check out the disco-stage lighting at Wells Fargo Center last night as Kanye West performs the single from his 2007 Graduation album. This was one of several latter sets with his full bodied pantyhose minions gracing the platform. Hit the jump for more from last night's Yeezus Tour in Philly.

YEEZUS TOUR: Kanye West opens w/ "On Sight" in Philly (VIDEO)


Sticking with the intro segment we saw from earlier shows on the tour, Ye makes his dramatic entrance with choir chants and his cloaked disciples. Performing the first track from his latest Yeezus album, Kanye appears in one of his several Maison Martin Margiela masks for the night. Hit the jump for some of the energy from Philly last night.

YEEZUS TOUR: Kendrick Lamar opens w/ "Money Trees" in Philly (VIDEO)


Kanye West's Yeezus Tour resumed from its hiatus at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia last night. Kendrick Lamar opened the show as no one else could with his GKMC favorite "Money Trees". Just as prominent as Kendrick's selfless presence was the band enhancing this opener, particularly the drummer and guitarist. Hit the jump for the two part video.

'Yeezus' tour kicks off in Seattle (VIDEO)


Kanye West kicked off his Yeezus tour last night in Seattle. According to reports and Consequence of Sound, of which we acquired this video, Ye performed a two-hour, 27-song set of songs from his entire discography. The abstract visuals and elaborate segues come with any Yeezy show if you're familiar, but this is surely shaping out to be his encore. With choir angels and even a Jesus look-a-like (shown above) the context is plenty indicative and provocative. Kendrick Lamar performed a nine-song set. Hit the jump and check out Ye's typically gratifying introduction into "On Sight". Check out my own highlights when Yeezus comes to New York next month.
