Kanye West played a storming set at Made In America Festival last night (30 August), watch it in full below:
The latest in a run of 2014 festival headline slots, the rap star took to the stage in Philadelphia for a raucous two hour set featuring cuts from across his illustrius discography.
Despite opener and Yeezus single ‘Black Skinhead’ being plagued with technical difficulties, it would appear West delivered a typically spectacular show, reeling off classics such as ‘Can’t Tell Me Nothing’, ‘All of the Lights’ and ‘All Falls Down’ alongside his newer, more divisive material.
In typical Kanye-style, the set also had a synonymously controversial edge, with West encouraging the crowd to form circle pits throughout, whilst also ranting at his technical accomplice Virgil Abloh for not lighting him right for parts of the show.

After performing the Hudson Mohawke-produced ‘Blood On The Leaves’ for a second time, Yeezy ended the set by wailing and walking off without explanation.
Despite extensively touring the US with his lavish Yeezus tour, Kanye has yet to play any UK shows in support of the record apart from Wireless Festival earlier this summer.
Made In America Festival continues today (31 August), with West travelling to Los Angeles for an appearance at the event's west coast counterpart.
