Kanye West Postpones ‘Yeezus’ Tour Dates to Finish New Album

This is why April Fool’s Day kind of sucks: I spent a good 10 to 20 minutes trying to figure out if this tweet was a prank—but I don’t think Live Nation would go so far as to lose thousands and postpone Kanye West concerts in the name of a bad joke.

Here’s the tweet in question:

Any Aussies who expected to see Kanye in May will have their tickets honored in September, which means: cancel those flights now! (Sorry if it was a prop plane special to the Outback.) Kanye and Q-Tip and Rick Rubin have an album to finish. The Yeezus prophecy hath been foretold.
