Kanye West Gives Surprise Performance of New Song ‘Vultures’ in Dubai

Kanye West appeared on stage in Dubai on Sunday night alongside Lil Durk and Ty Dolla Sign, where the trio gave a surprise performance of their new song “Vultures.”
The performance took place during Lil Durk’s show at night club Blu Dubai, which posted clips of the song on social media. On the club’s Instagram Stories, West can be seen rapping the song’s incendiary lyrics, including, “How am I antisemitic? I just fucked a Jewish bitch.”
West debuted the new song on Nov. 17 via Chicago radio station Power 92. It marks his first official release since July 2022’s “Hot Shit” with Cardi B and Lil Durk. In December, West’s career tailspin worsened when he appeared on Alex Jones’ “Infowars” talk show, during which he praised Hitler and made antisemitic jokes. West’s string of antisemitic comments culminated in him being kicked off of Twitter (though he has since been reinstated on Elon Musk’s X), losing his partnership with Adidas and being dropped as a client by CAA. According to West’s own Instagram post, he lost $2 billion in one day due to his hate speech.
West gave his first performance since the antisemitism controversy in August, when he joined Travis Scott on stage during a tour stop in Rome. Together, West and Scott performed “Praise God” and “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.”
“There is no ‘Utopia’ without Kanye West. There is no Travis Scott without Kanye West,” Scott said, referencing his new album. “There is no Rome without Kanye West. Make some noise for Ye.”
