CONFIRMED: COACHELLA BOOKS YE

As reported by Variety, Coachella has tapped Ye to headline the festival. He joins Billie Eilish and Swedish House Mafia as headliners confirmed thus far.

Come April, it will have been 11 years since Kanye West last graced the main stage in the desert; he enjoyed top billing in 2011 on the heels of his opus My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. In 2019, he performed a special Easter morning set with his Sunday Service on a man-made hill.

Swedish House Mafia remains the third headliner for now as Goldenvoice looks to strengthen the undercard for the days the trio performs. Look for big news on that front soon.

Ye recently mounted the Free Larry Hoover Benefit Show at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum with 70k in attendance and Drake as special guest.
