The European media team for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/tag\/ye\/\" data-type=\"post_tag\" data-id=\"708\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ye<\/a><\/strong> has confirmed to <strong>Magazine Hip-Hop<\/strong> that a monumental concert will take place in Marseille on <strong>Thursday, June 11, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">For this one-off stop in France, the Chicago-born artist has set his sights on the <strong>Orange V\u00e9lodrome<\/strong>, the iconic venue of the Phocaean city. This strategic choice makes Marseille the only French city included in the tour, once again confirming its status as a key hub for urban culture in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">True to his reputation as a visionary, <strong>Ye<\/strong> will not settle for a standard setup for this event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"684\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ye-Marseille-11June-fr.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ye-Marseille-11June-fr.jpeg 684w, https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ye-Marseille-11June-fr-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ye-Marseille-11June-fr-8x12.jpeg 8w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 684px) 100vw, 684px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>A central stage for YE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">However, the announcement has already sparked a <strong>political controversy in Marseille<\/strong>. The city\u2019s mayor, <strong>Beno\u00eet Payan<\/strong>, has publicly stated that the artist is \u201cnot welcome\u201d in the city, referring to controversies surrounding some of the rapper\u2019s past statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Despite these reactions, the concert is for now <strong>still confirmed on the stadium\u2019s schedule<\/strong>, and ticket sales are expected to open soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"fr\" dir=\"ltr\">I refuse to allow Marseille to be a showcase for those who promote hatred and unashamed Nazism. <br>Kanye West is not welcome at the V\u00e9lodrome, our temple of living together and of all Marseillais.<\/p>\u2014 Beno\u00eet Payan (@BenoitPayan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BenoitPayan\/status\/2029130972466208950?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 4, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A rumor suggests that an unprecedented stage structure will be built directly at the center of the pitch. This immersive setup would allow the audience, spread throughout the stands, to experience the show in 360 degrees. The installation would transform the V\u00e9lodrome into a futuristic arena, highlighting an unprecedented visual closeness between the artist and his fans, promising an experience that could make history in French concerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">The timing of this announcement is no coincidence, as it coincides with hot music news. The artist\u2019s twelfth studio album, titled <strong><em>Bully<\/em><\/strong>, is set to drop in stores and on all platforms on <strong>March 20, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">This Marseille concert will therefore be one of the very first opportunities worldwide to hear the new tracks live, just a few weeks after their official release. A genius producer and sound architect, will <strong>Ye<\/strong> mix his new gems with the legendary classics that built his legacy, from <strong><em>The College Dropout<\/em><\/strong> to <strong><em>Donda<\/em><\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">To ensure access for true fans and counter the black market, an ultra-secure ticketing system with a waiting list, or \u201cWaitlist,\u201d has been put in place. Fans must register on the artist\u2019s official website or through the <strong>Orange V\u00e9lodrome<\/strong> platform before <strong>Monday, March 9, 2026<\/strong> at 9:00 AM. Successful applicants will then receive their purchase confirmation between March 9 and 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tour.yeezy.com\/?city=france\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/tour.yeezy.com\/?city=france\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RESERVE YOUR TICKETS HERE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ll be following this closely to give you a behind-the-scenes look at what is already shaping up to be the rap event of summer 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Additionally, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/c.org\/5tr7rZkyDV\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/c.org\/5tr7rZkyDV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">an online petition<\/a><\/strong> has been launched to request authorization from the authorities to hold the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reseauunderground.com\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"www.reseauunderground.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><\/strong><\/a><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reseauunderground.com\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"www.reseauunderground.com\">Click here to be featured on MAGAZINE HIP-HOP and submit your project to the R\u00e9seau Underground Portal.<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reseauunderground.com\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"www.reseauunderground.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here to <strong>submit your project<\/strong> via the <strong>Official portal of Hip-Hop Magazine<\/strong>, accessible on the <strong>Underground Network<\/strong>.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The choice of the V\u00e9lodrome is no accident: it is one of the few stadiums capable of accommodating the usual grandeur of the artist.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":36,"featured_media":13494,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1540],"tags":[679,59,670,678,710,606,1128,2879,330,162,708],"class_list":["post-13490","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nouvelles","tag-actualites","tag-featured","tag-hip-hop","tag-journal","tag-kanye-west","tag-magazine-hip-hop","tag-media","tag-orange-velodrome","tag-rap","tag-videos","tag-ye"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13490","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/36"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13490"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13490\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13547,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13490\/revisions\/13547"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13494"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13490"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13490"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magazinehiphop.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13490"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
