Kanye West faces continued setbacks in securing venues for his shows, with promoters across various regions, including South America, expressing reluctance due to his recent controversies.
Despite inquiries, he has been met with firm refusals, as his image and security concerns deter potential hosts.
Even iconic venues like Maracana Stadium and Nilton Santos Olympic Stadium have turned down requests.
The release of his album “Vultures 1,” though successful, hasn’t altered perceptions, with local governments and venue managers remaining uninterested in associating with him.
These challenges persist despite his Billboard Hot 100 success. Requests in cities like Sao Paulo, Salvador, and Belo Horizonte have been met with similar resistance.
The situation underscores the widespread reluctance to engage with Kanye amidst ongoing controversies, making it difficult for him to secure performance venues in South America and beyond.
