Kanye West has announced a second listening party to celebrate his upcoming collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, which will now be released in three separate parts.
On Wednesday (February 7), the Yeezy boss took to his Instagram Stories to reveal plans for the event just two days after tickets for a Chicago gathering went live and immediately sold out.
The New York presentation will take place at UBS Arena in Belmont Park on Friday (February 9), which is also the release date of the project’s first installment.
“Fans will have the rare opportunity to experience ‘Vultures, Volume 1’ in a high-fidelity audio and visual showcase, crafted by YE and Ty Dolla Sign,” the venue’s website shared. “This event marks a historic moment as attendees will listen to the album together with the artists and album collaborators.”
Tickets go on sale starting Thursday (February 8) and can be purchased here.

The above news came just a day after the “Flashing Lights” hitmaker claimed that he is being blacklisted by concert venues despite being one of the most popular musicians in the world.
The controversial rapper made the allegations in a social media clip earlier this week and said: “We just sold out the United Center in seven minutes and I just wanted to express to everybody out there to see if anybody can help with this.

“It’s the only arena I had access to in the past year. And when I call, people say there’s no availables for me and you know why that is. If there’s anybody out there that can help with this, please do.”
His plea did not fall on deaf ears, as he soon posted screenshots of text messages documenting attempts to get a tour booked, including a discussion with his agent in which she claimed to have received “crazy amounts of non stop calls from all over the world.”
The screenshots also revealed attempts by Ye to schedule shows in Los Angeles, New York and iconic international landmarks such as the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Wall of China. He also revealed he had a $2.5 million offer to perform in Hong Kong, and that he is planning concerts in Australia and Hawaii as well.
The reason West implied he is having trouble booking a tour is most likely due to his history of antisemitic comments and association with Holocaust deniers such as Nick Fuentes.
