Kanye West had a “Vultures 2” listening event in South Korea yesterday alongside Ty Dolla $ign at Goyang Stadium. His daughter, North West, also made a guest appearance at the show.
The ¥$ duo performed a reported 74 track setlist. Before starting the 2007 Graduation hit “Good Morning” Kanye made a big statement in typical Ye fashion by declaring himself the “biggest artist in the world.”

While there is no debating Ye is one of the biggest artists in the world, to say he is the BIGGEST is quite the statement.
According to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), Ye’s archrival Taylor Swift was the world’s biggest musical artist in 2023. Swift is also the most-followed artist on Spotify as of August 2024.
