Kanye West has ramped up his redemption arc by revealing the release date for his new album Bully and plotting his first U.S. show in two years.

The Chicago rap icon updated his website on Monday (March 9) to announce that his upcoming 12th LP will arrive on March 27 — a week later than expected.

It was recently reported that the project will be distributed by gamma., the company cofounded by former Apple and Interscope executive Larry Jackson that has also struck partnerships with the likes of Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross and Usher.

Following the album’s release, Ye will perform at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium on April 3, marking his first domestic concert since his somewhat bizarre headlining set alongside Ty Dolla $ign at Rolling Loud California in March 2024.

The show is billed as Ye’s “only performance in Los Angeles.” Fans can pre-register for tickets by pre-saving Bully, with “a few lucky pre-registrants” being selected to receive free tickets. General tickets go on sale on Wednesday (March 11).

The concert is one of eight tour dates that Kanye has planned to promote Bully, with the other seven taking place in countries around the world.

He will kick things off on March 29 in New Delhi, India, before performing select shows in Turkey, the Netherlands, France, Italy and Spain through to July 30.
