Kanye West Downunder - Pollstar News

Australia will get a dose of the almighty “Yeezus” in May. Kanye West has five stops to make in the land of kangaroos, starting with a May 2 show in Perth. Presale tickets are available now.

Kanye is continuing to support his sixth studio album. Aussie fans dug the 2013 LP as much as fans in the U.S. In addition to peaking at No. 1 in the States and Australia, Yeezus also hit the top of the charts in Canada, Denmark, New Zealand, Russia and the U.K.
