It looks like there may not be a chance for anyone who was hoping to pay to see the “Vultures” album performed live in an arena anytime soon. The arenas that were supposed to host the next round of large-scale playbacks in April announced over the weekend that the dates were canceled or otherwise quietly pulled the plug. This means that the next round of “listening sessions” with Ty Dolla Sign and Kanye West, aka Ye, for the album project has been canceled.

Arenas in Tampa, Fort Lauderdale, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Charlotte, and Washingtоn, D.C. were the locations of the postponed concerts. After being announced for just a day or two, the shows were canceled.

Variety was informed by a Ye representative that the shows will not go forward.

Ye himself did not immediately comment on the cancellations; it appears that he deleted his Instagram account over the weekend.

Following mostly negаtive reviews of Ye and Ty’s opening-night performance at the Rolling Loud Festival in Inglewood, California, the shows were canceled. The set, which was supposed to include at least some live performance, ended up being another rolling of the “Vultures 1” tapes, with the two celebrities standing by on stage in masks. There was no debut of new material during the Rolling Loud playback.

“Vultures 1 & 2 Listening Experience” was the marketing term used to describe the April shows. However, despite the fact that “Vultures 2” was initially scheduled for release on March 8, there has been no indication that the album is still in the works. Ye had hinted in recent weeks on Instagram that, instead of a traditional release to DSPs, he was experimenting with the notion of just making “Vultures 2” available as a paid download or via a brand-new, exclusive streaming website.

April 7 in Nashville at Bridgestone Arena, April 9 in Pittsburgh at PPG Paints Arena, April 11 in Washingtоn, D.C. at Capital One Arena, April 14 in Tampa at Amalie Arena, and April 12 in Charlotte at Spectrum Center were the dates of the announced gigs.

While some of the performances had already started selling tickets, others were not supposed to go on sale until this week. An email discussion between a representative of the D.C. venue and a social media user revealed that tickets had already been bought and that a refund would be given. Hundreds of active postings for resale tickets for the shows are still visible on SeatGeek and StubHub as of this writing.

At this time, there are no concerts listed on the Ye Ticketmaster website. “We regret to report that due to the time constraints for Ye and Ty Dolla $ign to curate production and meet logistic requirements, the upcoming dates for the VULTURES 1&2 listening experience will need to be revisited at a later date,” the Florida arenas posted on their social media pages. The gig was canceled, a representative for the Charlotte location informed the Clture website.

Following the apparent breach of trust about the Rolling Loud performance, which had a live element, the most recent promotional material for the “Vultures” tour seemed to be cautious about making promises. The Nashville Bridgestone Arena website listed the “Vultures” event as “a hi-fidelity audio experience” prior to the page being taken down.

Ty Dolla Sign justified not playing at the arena-sized playback parties in an interview with Big Boy that aired shortly after the Rolling Loud controversy, saying, “It’s still better than other people’s shows that have a mic.”
