Kanye West to premiere SWISH live at Madison Square Garden
Answering the heretofore hypothetical question of how big of a building is required to contain Kanye West’s ego, Pitchfork reveals that the rapper and supportive reality-show spouse plans to unveil “the best album of all time,” SWISH, live at Madison Square Garden on February 11. Billed as “Yeezy Season 3,” the gigantic listening party will include a performance by artist Vanessa Beecroft, who also collaborated with West on his “Runaway” video, an 808s And Heartbreak private listening party, and the choreography on his Yeezus tour. It’s not clear yet if West himself will perform, as he has at previous launch events, or just sit on stage smiling and nodding along with his own music.
