Kanye West takes aim at ex Kim Kardashian's beau Pete Davidson at Miami listening party for Donda 2

Kanye West put on a delayed performance on Tuesday for what appeared to be his upcoming Donda 2 album at LoanDepot Park stadium in Miami, Florida.

The 44-year-old rapper appeared to take aim at his estranged wife Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson in multiple songs, including one referencing her fears that Kanye’s behavior was compromising Pete’s safety.

The hitmaker didn’t miss an opportunity to shock viewers by again recruiting shock rocker Marilyn Manson — who has been accused by multiple women of sexual and psychological abuse — as well as Alicia Keys, DaBaby and Migos.

Back for more: Kanye West, 44, appeared to take aim at his ex Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson at his Donda 2 listening event on Tuesday at LoanDepot Park stadium in Miami, Florida

In the song Eazy, which was released last month, West rapped, ‘God saved me from that crash / Just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s a**.’

The following son, apparently titled Security, included lines about putting someone’s ‘security at risk.’

The hitmaker didn’t single out his estranged wife or her SNL star boyfriend, but references to family photos made it sound as if he was referring to his own family situation.   

‘Pop some, I ain’t getting frisked. I put your security at risk. Pop some I ain’t getting frisked. I put your security at risk,’ West rapped over the soundtrack, according to The Sun.

‘Ok we gon’ make this an event? y’all gone need security for this,’ he continued, adding, ‘Security gon’ need security for this.’

He continued: ‘Never take the family picture off the fridge. Never stand between a man and his kids. Y’all ain’t got enough security for this.

‘I put your security at risk. I make your security all quit, like ‘we ain’t gettin paid enough for this.’

On fire: The performance opened with new song True Love, with the vocals and Kanye's rapping being broadcast as the house began to burn

Kanye was dressed in head-to-toe black as he rapped outside of a burned out replica of his childhood home that was surrounded by a shallow pond. 

He appeared to be wearing piercing light-colored contacts that made his eyes stand out.

He was covered in a bulky black leather jacket while wearing matching pants, though he skipped the striking balaclavas he has favored in recent months and instead revealed his face. 

The performance opened with new song True Love, with the vocals and Kanye’s rapping being broadcast as the house began to burn.

The man of the hour initial stood off to the side of the stage area, away from the blaze. 

As it was a performance of the album — or at least an early version of the album — West didn’t rap live. Instead, he paced around the stage, occasionally dancing to his verses or the chorus.

Among the high-profile guest appearances in the first half of the performance was from Migos.

The trio, comprised of Quavo, Offset and Takeoff, surrounded Kanye in the small pond around his house set.

They were featured on the song Kid We Did It, which was shown in an apparent set list that Quavo posted to his Instagram Stories on Tuesday night.

The trio appeared to be lip syncing along with their verses, though they weren’t amplified. 

West later sampled a line from Kim Kardashian’s Saturday Night Live opening monologue, which she performed in October 2021, ahead of the track Sci-Fi.

She could be heard saying, ‘I married the best rapper of all time. Not only that, he is the richest Black man in America.

‘A talented, legit genius who gave me four incredible kids.’

West conveniently left out the next line in the monologue where Kardashian joked about their divorce and made a dig about his ‘personality.’

‘So, when I divorced him, you have to know it came down to just one thing: his personality.’

She filed for divorce in February 2021 after nearly seven years of marriage. The former couple share four children: North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two.

Kardashian hosted Saturday Night Live for the first time in October 2021, just eight months after her and West’s public divorce proceedings. It would also be the place where her romance with Pete Davidson was sparked.

After the short first half of the concert, which appeared to be devoted to Donda 2, Kanye returned and rapped in person for some previously released songs that had appeared on the original Donda.

He was joined on Jail by shock rocker Marilyn Manson and DaBaby. After wrapping up the performance with Off The Grid, their was a burst of intense fireworks and explosions pointed straight into the sky. 

Earlier, Alicia Keys was unmissable in a vibrant yellow outfit as she became one of the first arrivals at the highly anticipated listening event.

The 41-year-old singer–songwriter was spotted stepping out of her SUV at Miami’s LoanDepot Park stadium, where West was set to debut the album. 

Alicia was unmissable in her busty neon yellow crop top, which featured a strap across her toned midriff.

She matched the top with a set of high-waisted figure-hugging yellow pants, and she elevated her 5ft6in stature with yellow pumps. 

The hitmaker completed her ensemble with a long yellow hooded raincoat.

She kept her hair more casual, tying her dark tresses into a bun while she covered up with chunk dark sunglasses and wore gold hoop earrings.

Just as he did with his previous listening events for Donda, Kanye is allowing fans at home the chance to livestream the performance.

Viewers can watch the show on the website for the rapper’s Stem Player, a device he’s selling that is supposed to allow users to break down songs into individual snippets and instrumental or vocal parts that can then be remixed.

West has previously eschewed several streaming services with the release of his album The Life Of Pablo, which initially was only available on Tidal and via a downloadable version from his website.

However, he eventually relented, and the album was made available to stream or purchase on most major services.

The show was set to begin at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, but as with nearly any performance involving West, the show hadn’t started by then.

Viewers who visited the website were initially shown a swirling circle of colors that pulsate to a heartbeat sound. 

Pricy: Kanye previously tweeted that his new album Donda 2 would only be available to stream on his Stem Player, which costs about $230 on his website once tax and shipping costs are added in

Fans looking for a higher-quality version of the performance could view the livestream in IMAX theaters across the country, though it’s unclear how the delay in the show’s start affected those screenings. 

The hitmaker previously livestreamed his Free Larry Hoover benefit concert, which saw him ending his feud with his co-headliner Drake, on Amazon Prime.

The players are supposed to come preloaded with Donda 2, and users will be able to break down the songs into ‘stems.’ 

After Kanye announced that the album would only be available on Stem Players, he claimed to have sold more than 6,200 of the musical device, which amounted to more than $1.2 million in sales.

Although Kanye explained that he was able to make much more money by keeping sales of his album through his own player, most of his audience may be unwilling to spend more than $200 dollars for a device to legally listen to his album.

The rapper and producer may also relent in the future and make the album more widely available, as he did with The Life Of Palbo. 

Earlier on Tuesday, The Daily Beast noted that many of the Monster rapper’s fans were upset after the album failed to drop at midnight, as it was set to be released on Tuesday.

However, he may have always intended to wait to release the album until after the live performance. 

Tickets to the in-person listening event were available starting at $85, and the stadium appeared to be packed after doors opened.

West himself was lit on fire after recreating his wedding to Kim Kardashian.
