The Good Life

Filed under: Kanye West

We're a bit jelly we weren't there, but….

Kanye West surprised clubgoers in Los Angeles on Tuesday night when he performed at the Rubyy Energy Drink party at club Area.

"He did four songs," one lucky clubgoer tells us. "All hits."

And he probably got paid at least $20k.

It's a good life indeed!

      AREA probably won't let perez in either - just like how PEREZ CAN'T GET into VILLA just like his pal Greasy Bear & twin Gummy Bear.

    33. Flowerbomb says – reply to this


      33

      Wh cares Perez, what is your thing with Kanye? It's because he is gay right? Well, since he is on the DL and ashamed of his sexuality you should dislike him. ANyway, the guy is a self-absorbed tool and his talent is obscured by his shitty ass attitude, a shame really.

      dammit… i got a message on facebook about this from a couple of LA friends. didn't believe it.

      Yawn. He's completely irrelevant.

    39. Aslan says – reply to this


      39

      no way did he only get 20k people like kanye beyonce and rhianna all charge 500k for a 30 min appearance. 4 songs = approx 20mins so you do the math. 20k is like pocket change to kanye

    40. Lauren says – reply to this


      40

      I was there……………. DJ Reflex's BDay Party, waited for kanye until 1:30. Totally worth every minute! Spectatcular* Don't HATE!

    41. Andrew says – reply to this


      41

      20k seems really low for "the biggest music act on the planet." (His quotes).
      4 songs is a major commitment. Cher got 17k years ago for one song (Song for the Lonely) at Roxy in New York City.

    44. Kanye says – reply to this


      44

      20K are you serious Perez? Get a clue. Maybe if you knew real people in the biz you'd know what peoples rates were. Try at least 100k. Kanye isn't going to sing four songs at a sponsor party for 20k. You are so clueless Perez.

    45. Justin Case says – reply to this


      45

      definitely cost at least $20k, i'm guessing more! They jus sent out the press release for his show here in Albuqueruqe….they want $27k for him to come to the club and do a 15 minute stage deal with his crew…but no worries you get a 5 second audio drop to put on the commercial! HA!

      Oh it prob sucked! Kanye came to Australia and was really bad! He was the headliner for a festival and the crowd hated him. Didnt do any of his hit songs that have made him famous, instead tried to sing a string or wierd ballads!

      RE: It was a birthday party for my man DJ REFLEX of Power 106 & MY BLOCK RECORDS!! Kanye and Common performed as a look out to Reflex for being a real DJ, and a great friend! Rockstars go clubbing on Weeknights, dumb ass.
