Kanye West Canceled The Rest Of His tour After a Bizarre Pro Trump Rant Because He's 'Exhausted'
Business Insider ^ | 1 hour ago | Paul Schrodt

A representative has confirmed that Kanye West is canceling the rest of his Saint Pablo tour, according to Pitchfork.

The decision comes after the rapper ended his set in Sacramento, California, on Saturday early. He performed only three songs and delivered an extended rant about politics, Jay Z, and Beyoncé.

"The Saint Pablo tour is the most relevant thing happening. If your old a-- keeps following old models, your a-- is going to get Hillary Clintoned. You might not like it, but you need to hear it," West said in the meandering rant, in which he also declared he was "on my Trump s--- tonight."

West had told another audience that he would've voted for Trump in the 2016 presidential election if he had voted at all, which sparked a lot of backlash.

"He's just exhausted," a source told TMZ of West's reasoning for canceling his concert dates. "He's been working around the clock on fashion design, both his own line and the Adidas line."

He had 21 more Saint Pablo tour dates scheduled after the Sacramento show. Tickets for the shows will be refunded, according to Pitchfork.

If he's seen as a Trump supporter by his fans that's not likely to endear him to them.

Touring performers are bonded against no shows. This will cost him financially, now and in the future.

Kanye security story:

He HATES having to push the elevator.

He and the bodyguards get into the elevator, Kanye just LOOKS at them expectantly —he won’t push the button.

“Okay, what floor, Kanye? I’ll push it...”

But he WON’T TELL...! He thinks they should CALL AHEAD to find out, see..? He thinks it’s demeaning to have to TELL them.

So they just STAND THERE, mystified for maybe 5 minutes.

Gets all pissed off —LEAVES..!

Can you imagine that’s behavior from a REALLY SUCCESSSFUL person..?

Ridiculous.

This doesn’t suprise me at all.

He’s one of those liberals who has just realized he was mugged. Like a blind man that can see for the first time in his life. Take it easy, man.

Remember five months back, when he was publicly begging Zuckerberg to FUND HIM..?

I think he has made some business bets that turned out to be spectacular failures.

There were stories at the beginning of the year that he was 30 million dollars in debt, and begging Mark Zuckerberg to bail him out.

One strange guy.

Smart, talented and strange tend to go together. I think you could add spoiled into the mix with Kanye too.

They should push all the buttons and let the spoiled brat enjoy stopping on every floor until the elevator reaches the one he wants.

Actually not true.

He canceled after his rant against Beyoncé at the next concert.

That’s true. We know he’s not taking meth because then he would’ve added show dates.

He's got a couple of very young children, if I remember correctly. Hopefully for their sake exhaustion is all it is.

I made up my mind about this assclown when he said “George Bush hates black people”.
