Kanye West Fans Chant For Refund After Chaotic Shanghai Concert
Kanye West's fans chanted for a refund at his Shanghai concert after he turned up more than 40 minutes late.
The controversial rapper took to the stage at Shanghai Stadium on Saturday night (12.07.25) and was not only reported by The Global Times to be significantly delayed getting onstage, but his set was plagued by technical difficulties, with some fans even taking to social media to complain about the lack of production.
A clip has gone viral online of the moment the 70,000-strong crowd erupted and demanded a refund. What's more, one fan accused him of lip syncing.
They wrote on X: 'Mostly lip synching. His microphone must have been up less than 20 per cent of the time."

The same user, with the username @Fabian_Lemuel, also claimed Kanye left the stage for 20 minutes during the encore as his music played over the sound system.
The disappointed gig-goer wrote: 'For the encore, he disappeared for over 20 minutes at one point as tracks like Wolves just played out with him nowhere in sight. I could have just played your music at home man. Came to see u perform???? (sic)"
The concert marked Kanye's first since September 2024.
It also came days after he was accused of sexual assault and 'oral rape" by his former assistant.
The Stronger hitmaker was first sued by Lauren Pisciotta – who worked for the rapper from 2021 until she was fired the following year – in 2024 for sexual harassment, when she claimed he had sent her explicit texts and pornographic videos, photos and calls, and she followed up and filed a second amended complaint which alleged assault, sexual battery and other allegations.
Kanye has only played a handful of gigs in recent years and has lost brand deals and been dropped by huge names since making a series of antisemitic outbursts.

I can't wait to come back, and just say thank you to each of you, properly, face to face. You've given me so much more than an education, you've given me a piece of myself I'll never lose.
