Kanye West Performed Sold Out Show in Los Angeles

Kanye West's Show Hit a Snag During 'Good Life' Performance
Kanye West apologized for his erratic behavior in January 2026.
The show seemingly hit a snag when the Chicago native performed his 2007 song "Good Life," after he had to restart the track several times due to "corny" lights.
“Is this like an SNL skit or something?” Kanye asked the audience before telling the crew. "Stop doing the vibrating, Vegas lights, bro."
The show marked Kanye's first Los Angeles show since apologizing for his erratic behavior in an open letter published in The Wall Street Journal.
The "Runaway" singer explained that his struggles with his mental health stemmed from a brain injury that went "unnoticed" for years, causing him to "lose touch with reality."
“Bipolar disorder comes with its own defense system. Denial. When you’re manic, you don’t think you’re sick. You think everyone else is overreacting,” he wrote. “You feel like you’re seeing the world more clearly than ever, when in reality you’re losing your grip entirely.”
