Kanye West’s ‘BULLY’ Tour Launches in Inglewood Amid Calls for Police Body Cameras
Filmogaz.com — Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, will take the stage Wednesday evening at SoFi Stadium. The performance is the first of two scheduled shows in Inglewood.
Both concerts begin at 7 p.m., Wednesday and Friday. The two-night residency was announced last month.
The 24-time Grammy winner is promoting his album Bully, released last month. These dates rank among his most prominent U.S. performances in years.
They arrive after public backlash over his past antisemitic remarks. The shows carry heightened attention from fans and critics alike.
Local protests and safety demands
Activists have staged demonstrations across the sports and entertainment district. The protests intensified after Bryan Bostic died in police custody.
Bostic’s death occurred during an alleged routine traffic stop on March 10. Protesters have said local safety remains a serious concern.
Community leader Najee Ali said Inglewood is not safe until officers wear body cameras. Activists have urged the city to require police body cameras.
Performance history and context
Ye last appeared at SoFi alongside Ty Dolla $ign at Rolling Loud in 2024. That set functioned more as a listening session than a conventional concert.
In 2017, his Saint Pablo tour visited the Kia Forum for six nights. This week’s shows recall that arena-era run.
Tour launch and logistics
Kanye West’s BULLY tour launches this week in Inglewood, coinciding with local calls for police body cameras. The timing links art and civic debate.
The residency was announced last month. Tickets and logistics were released with that announcement.
