Kanye West Confirmed for South by Southwest Performance
Rumours have been circulating for some time as to the likelihood of a Yeezy performance at this years South by Southwest conference. The initial and unofficial confirmation was received via a Vevo video in which the Kanye track “Runaway” was dropped just before the vid faded to black.
We are now happy to confirm that this is happening!
South by Southwest (at the Vevo Power Station) has long been a good place for aspiring artist to make a name for themselves, providing a great footing for future progression. South by Southwest is a yearly event in which thousands of fans, artists and media minions flock to Austin, Texas to catch a mass mix of new and established talent.
South by Southwest has helped the careers of many artists like Big K.R.I.T, Pill and Freddie Gibbs (to name a few) but every now and again, some of the big hitters join the madness! This is where Kanye comes in… His last appearance at the show was back in 2009 at the Fader Fort Venue, where he was joined by the likes of Mr. Hudson, Consequence and Big Sean and he has decided to take a break from the studio to hit up the old stomping ground.
He will be performing at midnight on the 19th of March (2011). There has been no confirmation on special guest performances as of yet but here’s hoping for some awesome on stage collaborations. (Bring on Nicki Minaj!)
