Kanye West fans get refunds for concert cut short in Sacramento last night where the rapper begged Jay-Z not to send killers after him

The rapper - who is currently in the midst of his Saint Pablo Tour - launched into a tirade on stage, taking aim at Taylor Swift, Hillary Clinton and Mark Zuckerberg - and even his once close friend Beyoncé - before asking her husband Jay Z to call him but not send killers after him.

Fans took to Twitter to report that the rapper then abruptly ended the show at the Golden 1 Center after just 10 minutes and performing only two songs. They also claim he showed up on stage an hour-and-a-half late.

'Get ready to have a field day press 'cause the show's over.' Kanye said and dropped his mic to boos from the crowd. Lol. I swear i love Kanye. Very real!!!

In a clip posted to social media the Famous hitmaker was heard telling the audience: 'Beyonce I was hurt because I heard you said you wouldn't perform unless you won video of the year over me and over Hotline Bling.

'In my opinion - now don't go dissing Beyoncé, she's great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forget who we are - just to win.

'F**k winning, f**k looking cool, f**k being cool.'

Realizing that he was possibly going to lose a lot of fans with his angry words and ending the concert early Kanye added: 'At the risk of my own success. I'll give ya'll the truth.'

The outspoken rapper who also brought Kid Cudi onto the stage during his brief performance - was then heard pleading for Beyoncé's husband Jay-Z to call him to talk things out.

'Jay Z, I know you got killas. Please don't send them at my head. Just call me—talk to me like I man,' he said.

After telling the audience he is 'just a man... the same as everybody here', he added: 'This is the future. This is the way of thinking to make America great again.'

This was met by boos, but Kanye simply laughed and said: 'You don't like that. Guess what? Y'all need the vibes. I was hurt. Feelings matter, bro. The way motherf****** put money up so high. Popularity. Radio spins. Feelings matter, bro.

'It's a new world, Hillary Clinton. It's a new world. Feelings matter. Because guess what? Everybody in middle America felt a way, and they showed you how they felt... It's a new world Barack. It's a new world Jay Z.'

He then added: 'If you keep following old models, your ass is going to get Hillary Clinton'd.

'I ain't here to massage you with the fake truth, telling you that Hillary going to win over and over and over. Then you wake up and you still can't believe it. You know why? Because you was lied to by Google. You was lied to by Mark Zuckerberg."

Saturday's incident comes after the hip-hop star shocked a crowd in San Jose by revealing his support for US President-elect Donald Trump while suggesting he still plans to challenge him in 2020.


It has been revealed moments ago that, Ticketmaster is refunding tickets to last night’s Kanye West concert in Sacramento after the performer cut short his appearance Saturday night.

Though no official announcement has been made, a source close to the performance confirmed that Ticketmaster and Live Nation are giving people their money back. Fans have begun reporting that they have received full refunds by calling the ticket agency.

At least one person, however, was told that he may consider holding onto his tickets for 24 hours in case an alternate date is scheduled.

Myla Watson, 38, said she called Ticketmaster, waited on hold for about 15 minutes and was granted a refund for the $209 she spent on two lower-level tickets. No argument, just a promise that her money would be returned on her credit card within two days.


“I feel better that I got a refund,” she said. “I understand that he needs to express himself in different ways. He needs a different outlet than a concert – a podcast or something.”
