Kanye West has been out of the public eye regarding concerts for a while, but he’s just announced his first show of 2025. On June 19th, it was announced Ye would be headlining the Rubicon Festival in Bratislava, Slovakia, this summer.

Rubicon announced the news on Instagram with an image of the rapper in front of a white background. In the caption, the festival wrote, “HEY WORLD, SEE YOU. 18.-20. JULY. BRATISLAVA, SLOVAKIA. WWW.TICKETPORTAL.SK.”

The festival will take place at Záhorská Bystrica between July 18th and July 20th. Other artists on the lineup include Offset, Ken Carson, UF0361, Voyage, Gzuz, and DJ Spade. Tickets go on sale June 22nd at the festival’s official website.

Last year’s lineup included big names such as French Montana, Lil Pump, Quavo, Tyga, NLE Choppa, and Dollar Prync.

Kanye had concerts in South Korea and China in 2024. He was also set to perform in Taiwan and Italy for Vultures listening experiences, but they were both cancelled.

Earlier this week, Kanye announced he would be releasing 10 songs from his Bully album over the course of the week.

“Releasing 5 of the songs 2nt,” he wrote in a message to fan account YeFanatics. “Will release another 5 2mrw. And then more the next day. Still working on the album. Share this message.”

While he failed to completely keep his promise, three songs, ‘Preacher Man’, ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘DAMN’ appeared on streaming platforms on June 20th.

The visual album was initially released in March with features from Playboi Carti, Ty Dolla Sign, and Peso Pluma. The short film was directed by Hype Williams and starred Kanye’s son, Saint, fighting wrestlers.
