QuoteKanye West Storms Off Stage After Ranting About Beyoncé And Jay Z
Fans at the Sacramento leg of the Saint Pablo Tour are demanding refunds after the rapper performed only three songs before ending his concert abruptly. West canceled his concert the following night in LA, just hours before it was set to begin.

According to fans posting on social media, West only played three songs on Saturday night before leaving the stage at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California.

According to fans at the concert, West showed up late, launched into a tirade onstage, performed briefly, and then walked offstage without explanation.

In clips posted on Twitter, West said he was hurt by Beyoncé, before asking Jay Z "to call me."

Here's some of what West said:
Quote
Beyoncé, I was hurt because I heard you said you wouldn't perform unless you won video of the year over me and over "Hotline Bling." In my opinion — now don't go dissing Beyoncé, she's great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forget who we are just to win.
Fuck winning, fuck looking cool, fuck looking cool, fuck being cool. Fuck all that. I've been sent here to give y'all my truth, even at the risk of my own life. At the risk of my own success. I'll give y'all the truth. Jay Z, call me, you still ain't called me ... Jay Z, I know you got killers. Please don't send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man.

West then said, "Press get ready to have a field day, the show's over," before dropping his mic and leaving the stage.

QuoteSnoop Dogg was in the crowd. And he had pretty hilarious reactions as the rant unfolded/continued/went on forever.

QuoteThat n***a crazy. This n***a onstage... this n***a crazier than the shit I got on my head... That n***a crazy. I can't believe he still talking. He picked the wrong night to vent like that. Them Sacramento n***as ain't feeling that shit. He shoulda had a bunch of weird motherfuckers like you when he was talking that weird ass shit... That's just my thought. I smoke weed. Weed don't make you do that. What the fuck is he on?

The College Dropout is one of the few hip hop albums I have ever bought. He seemed a genuinely engaging and smart lyricist back then. When did he go off his rocker?

He's always been a bit of an issue for me as I do think he puts together good music (well I've only ever purchased "Graduation" and his collaboration with Jay-Z "Watch The Throne") but his personality has always been erratic and nutso from when I've paid attention.

Yeah, but this whiny primadonna persona is a relatively decent development in his career. He's always been controversial, but he had a sense of purpose before (regardless if you agreed with his stances). Now it's all bizarre personal vendettas and stunt headline grabbing. I guess he got caught in the celebrity bubble (he married Kim Kardashian after all).

And indeed, he makes good music, and I don't usually care for hip hop.

Apparently he has been taken to a hospital. It is unclear if this is psychological or physiological.

I bet his management company had to do that in order to trigger some contractual clause to get him out of penalties for shutting down the tour.

Why do you have to be so negative about everything?

I'm not negative about everything. I am wary, suspicious and negative about the crazies/crazy thoughts that you bring up here. ;)

It is.  You should be ashamed of yourself.

I don't think anyone is trying to shame Kanye West because he's mentally ill.  People are making fun of him because, mental illness aside, he's a self-absorbed asshole--which is something he should be ashamed of.
