Updating his January announcement, Kanye West has set a March 27 release for 'Bully' and revealed an eight-show world tour, including his first U.S. performance in two years at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on April 3.
Kanye West, also known as Ye, updated his website on March 9 to confirm his 12th studio album Bully—previously announced for March 20—will now arrive on March 27. The project is distributed by gamma., as noted in the initial rollout details.
Ahead of the release, Ye announced an eight-show tour starting March 29 in New Delhi, India, with subsequent stops in Turkey, the Netherlands, France, Italy, and Spain, ending July 30. The only U.S. date is April 3 at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium, his first domestic concert since headlining Rolling Loud California with Ty Dolla $ign in March 2024. This follows limited U.S. appearances amid career fallout from antisemitic comments, including the Adidas Yeezy split.
Fans can pre-register for LA tickets by pre-saving the album, with select registrants eligible for free entry; general sales start March 11.
These developments follow Ye's January Wall Street Journal apology for antisemitic remarks, where he detailed a 2022 car accident's delayed diagnosis contributing to his bipolar type-1 condition. In the ad, he expressed regret, denied being a Nazi or antisemite, apologized to the Black community, and committed to positive art amid improved mental health management.
