Kanye West Reportedly Rakes in $33 Million During His 2 Comeback Shows
TMZ • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Kanye West grossed $33 million from two sold-out shows in Los Angeles, with his Friday concert alone earning over $18 million, marking one of the highest-grossing single live music events.
- His new album, "Bully," is performing well, expected to be among the best-selling albums in its opening week, supported by strong fan demand.
- Despite his resurgence, Bloomberg warns these successful shows might be an anomaly given West's controversial antisemitic statements since 2022 that alienated industry peers and corporate partners.
- Some companies, including Spotify and RapCaviar, are cautiously giving West a second chance by featuring his music on popular playlists, while his concerts were promoted by Rod Wave's company in partnership with Live Nation.
- West's recent public apology for his antisemitic remarks in the Wall Street Journal appears to be part of his effort to rebuild his mainstream career and regain industry acceptance.
