Kanye West hit a snag during his comeback show in Los Angeles … where the lights during his concert became a bit of a “runaway” — with Ye halting the show to fix it his way.
The rapper performed for a packed SoFi Stadium Wednesday night — his first show in Tinseltown in five years — and, much to the delight of his fans, ran through a bunch of his biggest hits.
But things took a turn during his 2007 track “Good Life” … when Ye suddenly stopped mid-song and called for production to cut the music. He addressed the crew directly … taking issue with the disco-style lighting, saying it didn’t pair well with the smoke-filled stage and needed to go.
Ye restarts the song from the top … but seconds in, shuts it down again — this time calling the lights “corny.”
Third time wasn’t the charm either … with Ye pulling the plug again and asking, “What is this, an ‘SNL’ skit?” … before doubling down and telling the crew, “Stop doing the vibrating, Vegas lights, bro,” adding this had already come up in rehearsal.
Fourth time, finally, did the trick … and Ye’s fans ate it up.
Kanye had a handful of surprise guests join him on stage … including Don Toliver and his daughter, North, who performed “TALKING” and her original song “PIERCING ON MY HAND.”
Ye’s has another L.A. show coming up tomorrow … and you can bet lighting won’t be an issue.
