Kanye West implies venues won’t book him after his antisemitic rants, compares himself to Elvis Presley

Kanye West is now feeling the pinch following his antisemitic rants.

The 24-time Grammy-winning rapper seemingly claimed that he’s having a hard time booking venues for his gigs, suggesting it’s because of his past rants that have caused his finances to crumble.

After telling his 19 million followers on the platform that he’s having trouble booking arenas, he added, “And you know why that is.”

In a follow-up post, the “Jesus Walks” rapper bizarrely compared his hardships to that of Elvis Presley.

“I have not been allowed to perform in a year,” he wrote. “Feels like the Elvis Presley movie.”

West said the only arena he’s been able to book for his tour is the United Center in his hometown of Chicago.

“We just sold out the United Center in seven minutes, and I just want to express to everybody out there to see if it’s anyone that can help with this. It’s the only arena that I had access to in the past year,” he said.

“And when I call, people say there are no avails for me and you know why that is,” he added, seemingly hinting that he’s been blacklisted by people following his antisemitic rants.

“So if there’s anybody out there that can help with this, please do,” he pleaded.

A mere six hours later, West seemingly confirmed that he’s finally been given the go-ahead by the business to book their venues after all.

West then posted a screenshot of a text from his booking manager, which read, “Crazy amount of no. stop calls from all over the world. Will send new offers and avails tomorrow.”

His booking manager also implied that West is looking to secure a venue in Australia.
