After the demonstrators at the Salon de l'Agriculture, it is the public at the Accor Arena who are calling for the resignation of Emmanuel Macron.
Sunday February 25, in Paris, Kanye West presented
Vultures 1,
his album in collaboration with Ty Dolla Sign.
A concert like no other since it was an “immersive musical experience”.
While waiting for the arrival of the rapper, the public kept busy as best they could, sometimes singing
“Here is Paris”
, sometimes
“Macron resignation”
.
This is not the first time that the President of the Republic finds himself at the center of attention during a musical event where he is not present.
Last June, during Global Citizen, a concert on the Champ de Mars where Billie Eilish, HER and Lenny Kravitz performed, the same chants were heard.
A month earlier, at the Olympia, the singer Girl in Red had the misfortune of asking her audience to teach her a few words in French.
The answer was not complicated:
“Macron, resignation”.
With Kanye West no stranger to scandals and controversies, his “immersive music experience” was no exception.
While some fans loved the concept, others remain skeptical.
“Why pay for playback”
,
“all that to see a guy with a hood”
,
“maybe it wasn’t him on stage”
… On social networks, many people criticize his performance.
And given the price of tickets, we understand their anger.
To see Kanye West doing hooded lip sync, you had to pay between 90 and 200 euros.
The album was also problematic.
The 46-year-old rapper, already accused of anti-Semitism, has done it again.
In
King
, one of the titles on
Vultures 1
, he even claims to be
“crazy, bipolar, anti-Semitic”
but
“remain the king”
.
