Returning to South Korea for the first time in 14 years, Ye (formerly Kanye West) and Ty Dolla $ign, performing as ¥$, delivered a monumental 'Vultures Listening Experience' at Goyang Stadium on August 23, 2024. Billed as a listening party for their collaborative 'Vultures' project, the event evolved into a sprawling, career-spanning performance that captivated the 35,000 attendees. The show began with a dramatic entrance, as Ye appeared on a white horse, circling a sand dune-shaped stage under ethereal lights, setting a mystical tone for the evening.
The first part of the event focused on the 'Vultures' tracks, with both Ye and Ty Dolla $ign commanding the stage, their energy amplified by a minimalist yet powerful production. However, the night's biggest surprise came after the listening session concluded. Ye returned to the stage unmasked, armed only with a microphone, and launched into an electrifying medley of his greatest hits. For over two hours, he performed an astounding 78 songs, from classics like "Runaway" and "Stronger" to fan favorites, often transitioning spontaneously and inviting the crowd to sing along a cappella. This raw, unfiltered performance, which also featured a guest appearance by his daughters, created an unforgettable and deeply personal connection with the audience, transforming a listening party into a legendary live concert.
