Tonight, Kanye West will appear on stage at the Goyang Stadium in Seoul, South Korea — his first show outside the US since last summer.

It can be revealed that the American rapper, who now prefers to be called ‘Ye’, is going to perform atop a giant sand dune, with around 40 truckloads of golden sand delivered this week, as per the artist’s orders.

So what does it take to keep Ye happy on the road? 

Sources reveal his rider includes a jaw-dropping list of demands, including 24 rooms in a five-star hotel for his own personal use.

For himself and wife Bianca Censori, who is travelling with him, Ye specifies that their hotel must be a Ritz, Four Seasons or Aman group (the luxe resorts owned by Russian tycoon Vladislav Doronin).

The crew can be put up at a different hotel, but it must still be a five-star establishment.

At the gigs, the crew must wear black, and must not use their phones at all — or partake in alcohol, tobacco or drugs.

At each concert venue, Ye needs four private — lockable — rooms, containing only black furniture (two couches, two chairs and a festival table).

There are to be no plastic bottles, plates or utensils. 

He wants black hand towels — which must be ‘pre-washed’ — plus another ten large bath towels. Also black. And one box of unscented baby wipes.

While many artists like food back stage (Madonna’s catering demands are legendary, and Macca insists on vegetarian fare for the crew and himself), Ye asks only for a fruit platter.

To wash it down he has 24 bottles of water, and four of fruit juice. 

Booze is banned.

One thing which he is particularly picky about is phone chargers. 

He wants two different iPhone chargers and specifies: ‘NO bootleg Apple products.’

(I sympathise — nothing’s more frustrating than not being able to charge your phone.)

Ye had hoped to do a global tour but, in the wake of repeated controversies and continuing erratic behaviour, only a handful of dates have been booked.

After Seoul he was to have played his ‘Vultures Listening Experience’ in Taiwan, but that concert was reportedly cancelled mid-week amid issues with the local production supplier.

Kanye played a number of dates in the US this spring.

At one concert, while sporting a Jason Voorhees ‘Friday The 13th’ mask, he rapped: ‘I’m still crazy, bipolar, anti-Semite. And I’m still the king!’ 

Which led to the event’s livestream being cut off.

Kanye showed off his $850,000 golden grills as he arrived in Seoul Korea on Thursday with his wife Bianca and his children. 

Model and architect Bianca, 29, who has risked flouting the law around the world with her increasingly outrageous outfits, chose a much more conservative ensemble while walking through the airport with the rapper, 47.

She covered-up in a fitted, highneck midi dress, paired with stiletto heels and a matching bakerboy cap. 

Kanye also kept it casual in a plain, white hoodie and matching joggers, shielding his eyes with black sunglasses.  

Bianca carried Chicago, six, in her arms as they walked around the airport lobby, with North, 11, and Saint, eight, by her side. Psalm, five, seemingly did not tag along on the trip.

The couple are in South Korea ahead of Kanye’s Vultures 2 listening party with Ty Dolla $ign. 

Kanye last performed in South Korea 14 years earlier while at the Summer Week&T music festival back in 2010.

The musician shares his four children with ex-wife Kim Kardashian. They began dating in 2012, married in 2014 and filed for divorced in 2021. 

In February, a source revealed to DailyMail.com that Kim had asked Kanye to have his wife cover up when around their children, which might explain her ensemble.
