Kanye West Surprises ASAP Rocky Crowd At Coachella: Fans Freak When Mics Cut Out


Oh man! Kanye West made a surprise appearance at Coachella, thrilling fans when he took the stage during pal A$AP Rocky’s set. But his tardiness ended up getting their performance cut off!

Uh oh! Kanye West, 38, shocked the fans at Coachella with joy, then totally let them down when his lateness to joining pal A$AP Rocky’s closing set numbers literally got them shut down by the venue. The guys wanted to do one last song together, but they’d run past A$AP’s alotted time. Fans went wild with anger when their microphones got cut off.

“They were about to announce the last song but because of the mics getting cut off, Kanye walked off stage and then so did A$AP — people were really angry,” a witness tells as A$AP was nearing the end of his 7:30-8:20 allotted slot time, he made azillion smartphones start clicking away when he announced that “legend” Kanye was joining him on the Outdoor Theater stage. Of course the fans went absolutely berserk when he walked on and performed “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1.” with A$AP. The guys were about to kick it in to one last number when suddenly theirmicrophones were cut off, abruptly ending the set and angering the crowd.
“Everyone was chanting their names and then cursing. The energy was so high before the technical issues cut in, so people were really upset,” our spy adds. Stream Kanye’s music, unlimited and ad-free, RIGHT HERE.
It turns out Kanye’s tardiness cost them the extra time, as he took the stage 12 minutes later than he was supposed to, which is a big no–no at Coachella. Each band has a set amount of time and can’t go over and it would mess with all the other opening times for the acts that follow, and the last act of the night has a curfew time. According to the L,A, Times, Yeezy blamed the delay on the night’s high winds, which reportedly caused the festival to demand Kanye position a giant video screen lower than he’d intended.
HollywoodLifers, do you think Kanye will show up for A$Ap’s set on Apr. 22 so they can finish what they tried to start before being cut off?

Frank Ocean new album: How to listen and stream Boys Don’t Cry when it drops

After two missed release dates a year apart and a confusing decoy of a “live stream” video, Frank Ocean is set to finally release his second album,  Boys Don’t Cry , on Friday 5 August. It will be launched through an exclusive deal with Apple Music, according to the  New York Times , who cite a ‘person with knowledge of the release plans’. If indeed this is the case (and it would make sense, that live stream has an Apple watermark), it means you’ll need to sign up for Apple Music to listen to the  Channel Orange  follow-up, which costs £9.99 a month (£4.99 for students through Apple’s UNiDAYS promotion). You might want to turn off auto-renewal off though (Apple Music app > profile icon > View Apple ID. > Subscriptions > Manage > switch Auto-Renewal off), if you’re the kind of person who, like me, is liable to forget that you’ve signed up for the service indefinitely. Beyond Apple Music...

Why My Chemical Romance's 'The Black Parade' Was The 'Sgt Pepper' Of The Emo Generation

Secret (or not so secret) noughties emos rejoice! Grab some black hair dye and vow to disown your parents all over again! Because  My Chemical Romance  look  set to reissue an expanded version of 'The Black Parade' , their third and most successful album, for its 10 year anniversary (yes, you really are  that  old).  The news last night, stoked by a  mysterious video  teased on the band's long-dormant Twitter page, was enough to rev some sections of the internet into a frenzy. But what's all the fuss about? Well, the album in question wasn't just the band's best, nor just most succinct album of its genre, it was one of the most important records of the last decade.  An  "ostentatious concept-album-cum-rock-opera about death" , as we described it upon its release, the record is a bombastic tour-de-force that took cues from Green Day's 'American Idiot' (both albums were recorded with the same producer) but sounded nothing like its...
