DONDA: Kanye West’s New Album Listening Event Breaks Apple Livestream Record
American rapper, Kanye West’s “DONDA” album listening event has broken the Apple Music Global Livestream record.
According to reports, Kanye’s new album listening event, which was held at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta broke the Apple Music Global Livestream record with 3.3 million viewers who tuned in on their screens. This surpasses the 1.8 million viewers who tuned into Jeezy and Gucci Mane’s Verzuz battle last year.
West was supposed to release “Donda” on Friday (23 July), but no album materialised.
The rapper did, however, hold a massive listening party at the Mercedes-Benz stadium in Atlanta. It was attended by around 42,000 fans who paid between $20-$100 per ticket.
During the listening party, West apparently said nothing during the 48 minutes he spent roaming the stadium floor. He arrived almost two hours after the event’s start time and fans were played the new material loudly over stadium speakers
