Kanye West va susține concerte în Rusia. Artistul, refuzat de Europa, stârnește controverse

Kanye West, now known as Ye, announced two concerts in St. Petersburg this fall, stirring controversy among Russian lawmakers. These will be the first performances by a Western artist in Russia since the Ukraine invasion. Scheduled for October 20 and 21 at Gazprom Arena, tickets sold out quickly, despite West's controversial reputation. Some Russian conservatives oppose his presence, while fans express excitement over the events. Previous attempts by West to tour Europe faced cancellations due to his antisemitic remarks, but he has performed in other countries like Turkey and Albania.
