While the Yeezy designer has been known for hosting live listening parties for his albums, some people are upset that he and his 'Vultures' collaborator didn't bring microphones at the festival.

AceShowbiz - Kanye West continued to enrage people with his antics. The "Donda" artist and his "Vultures" collaborator Ty Dolla $ign were dragged online for performing at Rolling Loud without microphones.

According to the Los Angeles Times, Ye "roamed around in a black jacket and a face mask as their songs played over the festival's sound system." to Variety, meanwhile, stated that "the festival had expected a more conventional performance as well, and even erected a special stage with a circular lighting rig for the set."

Many have since expressed their disappointment on social media. "Sounds like you guys disappointed your fans AGAIN with Kanye and at this point it feels like a literal scam," one fan posted to Rolling Loud on X, formerly Twitter.

Another argued, "Wow horrible 'performance' and they didn't drop the album does this get any better." A third fumed, "If you brought him to do that may as well not bring him at all."

Despite the backlash online, videos from the event show an engaged audience who were happily singing along to "Vultures". Some fans also praised it on social media, with one writing, "I love that all the photography and video is like dramatic, gothic performance art."

Kanye has been known for hosting live listening parties for his albums, and has been doing it since "The Life of Pablo" era in 2016. The emcee even discussed the performance style along with Ty when appearing on "Big Boy TV". "It's still better than other people's shows that have a mic," Ty said.

"What I've noticed a while ago is that there could be a band on a festival and they go up there and kill it, and there's a DJ that just goes out there solo, never grabs a mic, they pay him way more, you know what I mean? You can still do it without grabbing a mic," he added. "We found a new way. Just from even the way that the lights are to the way that the smoke is coming out, all of that is the show."

Kanye then chimed in, describing the "smoke and the lights" as the "opener" for their show. "It's just a way to bring people into a different experience," the father of four declared.
