Ye Brings Lauryn Hill Onstage at Sold-Out Second SoFi Comeback Show

The star turns have renewed scrutiny of collaborators after his antisemitic remarks.

Overview

  • Ye’s second sold-out concert at SoFi Stadium, held Friday, featured a livestreamed set where Lauryn Hill joined him for “All Falls Down” and a “Doo Wop (That Thing)” transition into “Believe What I Say.”
  • Travis Scott performed their new Bully single “Father” and his hit “Fein,” while CeeLo Green delivered the album’s title track, North West rapped two songs, and André Troutman appeared for “All the Love.”
  • The production placed performers in harnesses atop an orb-shaped stage that shifted between a rotating Earth, a moon and a smoking sphere, framing a two-hour mix of Bully tracks and older hits.
  • The Hill cameo drew split reactions online as fans praised the moment and critics questioned co-signs of Ye, who released a track titled “Heil Hitler” last year and published a public apology earlier this year.
  • Following the Bully release and the Los Angeles shows, Ye is booked to headline Wireless Festival in London from July 10–12 and has additional international dates, plans that have drawn pushback from London officials and major Jewish groups.
