‘Twas the night of Governor’s Ball, and all through New York, people were searching for turn-up, and none could be found.
Yeezy fans were blown when they found out that NYC’s annual Governors Ball was cancelled due to inclement weather.
Kanye, a true performer and loyal to his fans, decided a little rain isn’t going to stop the party.
The ‘Life Of Pablo’ artist attempted a surprise concert at 1:00am at Webster Hall, and the crowd got so large, there was almost a damn riot!

Racists don’t like a lot of things. They don’t like difference. They don’t like change. They don’t like color.
They also don’t like fictional characters being depicted as Black people.
Like, Rue in Hunger Games, or Santa Claus or, Hermione from Harry Potter.
JK Rowling had to clap back at the trolls who aren’t here for a Black Hermione in the new play, Harry Potter and The Cursed Child.
Noma Dumezweni was cast in the highly anticipated stage play. But of course, naysayers are criticizing the casting choice because of the color of her skin.
“I had a bunch of racists telling me that because Hermione ‘turned white’ – that is, lost colour from her face after a shock – that she must be a white woman, which I have a great deal of difficulty with. But I decided not to get too agitated about it and simply state quite firmly that Hermione can be a black woman with my absolute blessing and enthusiasm.”
So sit down, all ye prejudice. The inventor and creator of the series loves it, and so do we!
