Kayne West promoted his Donda Experience Performance in Miami February 22. The artist instructed fans to “Go to LiveNation.com to order tickets to my DONDA 2 listening and DONDA 1 performance this Tuesday February 22 2022″. Furthermore, the show will take place at Miami’s loanDepot Park.
Looking at the Ticketmaster listing, fans see a large stage in the center of what is usually a baseball field. The show starts at 8pm on Tuesday evening.
Apple Pulls “Streaming Deal”
The artist shared a conversation with one of his Live Nation partners. We see Live Nation eager to get the seminal performance filmed. Meanwhile, Ye responds saying “I’ll cut the check since apple pulled on their streaming deal”.
Furthermore, Ye wrote on Instagram, “I love how Apple only sees artist in only one way. They’ll sit with Daniel Ek but won’t meet with Ye.” Ek is Spotify’s founder and CEO.
Stem Player and Netflix
Kayne West announced Thursday that his upcoming album will only be available on his proprietary platform, the Stem Player. Donda 2 will not be streaming on Apple Music, Spotify or YouTube. The player allows a user to break any song into “stems”. Furthermore, one can control vocals, drums, bass and samples. Parts of songs can be isolated and effects added. And it is all very tactile, using a physical device.
In an Instagram post, Kayne says he is adding his latest song, City of Gods, to the the 22 song playlist of Donda 2. In addition, Ye’s Netflix documentary, Jeen-Yuhs was the #1 film on Netflix, earlier on Friday.
