JAKARTA - Kanye West appeared as a surprise at the Rolling Loud festival, Miami on Friday, July 22 yesterday. It is understood he had withdrawn from the event where the promoter announced West was not removed from the list of performers.

Lil Durk who was performing on stage then called Kanye West who was wearing all black to the stage.

Then he sang Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1 from the album Life of Pablo. Reportedly this song was sung by West as a satire for Kid Cudi who replaced Kanye West from the headliner position.

Kid Cudi admitted that he had a conflict with Kim Kardashian's ex-husband. Kanye West also announced Cudi will not be a duet with him on the new album because Kid Cudi is friends with Kim Kardashian's boyfriend, Pete Davidson.

"I also don't want to (sing) on your album hahaha. Everyone knows I did my best with your album," wrote Kid Cudi on Kanye West's Instagram account at the time.

Previously, Kanye West headlined the Rolling Loud festival but withdrew weeks before the concert. West did not explain the reasons for the departure of the musician.

"We worked with him (Kanye West) and his team for months but Ye decided not to appear. It's the first time a headliner has voted for this," said the Rolling Loud founder.

Then Kid Cudi was announced as the replacement headliner for Kanye West. He also left the stage in the middle of the performance after being pelted with plastic bottles by festival goers.
