Late Kanye West Told He Sucks By US Festival Crowd

US rapper Kanye West was told that he sucked by a US festival crowd at the weekend after he appeared late for a scheduled performance.



West was due to take to the stage at the Bonnaroo Festival at 2.45am on Sunday morning but eventually appeared over an hour and a half later.



The rapper was booed by a restless crowd, who chanted “Kanye Sucks” when he finally emerged on stage.



According to a festival spokesperson, West's late arrival was caused by the complex nature of his stage show, which depicts him in space.



West is due to appear in the UK next month at the Global Gathering Festival near Stratford-Upon-Avon.



Tickets for the event are on sale now and available through Gigwise here. Alternatively, you can call our ticket hotline on 0871 230 1098 for more information.
