Kanye West dedicates 'I Wonder' to Drake at 'Vultures 2' listening party in South Korea

Ye surprises Korean fans with a 70-track medley, takes aim at Adidas, and pays tribute to rap icons at Goyang Stadium.

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign took the stage at South Korea’s Goyang Stadium on Friday, August 23, for an electrifying 'Vultures 2' listening party that doubled as a full-scale concert. 

In front of a packed audience of 40,000 fans, Ye delivered a performance that spanned his entire career, rapping along to over 70 tracks, including iconic hits like “Stronger,” “Runaway,” and “Famous.” 

Throughout the evening, West made headlines with his candid shout-outs to key figures in his life. 

Ahead of performing "I Wonder" from *Graduation*, West dedicated the track to Drake, despite their turbulent history, and fashion designer Ian Connor.

The night also saw West pay homage to his longtime collaborator Jay-Z and several Roc-A-Fella legends as he performed “Diamonds From Sierra Leone.” 

The crowd erupted as Ye called for everyone to "put your diamonds in the sky," saluting Jay-Z, Dame Dash, and other key figures from his early career. 

Not one to shy away from controversy, West also took a moment to rally the audience against his former partner Adidas, leading a raucous “F— Adidas” chant before launching into “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.” 

The listening party, which marked West’s first performance in South Korea in 15 years, was a departure from the traditional format of previous events, with Yeezy choosing to rap live rather than simply play recorded tracks. 

The Vultures duo planned to continue their Asia tour in Taiwan, but the show was abruptly canceled for reasons yet to be disclosed. *Vultures 2*, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, has been a significant moment for Ye, reigniting his passion for live performance.
