Kanye West Wrote an Opera, Will Debut It at the Hollywood Bowl

Kanye West has announced that he wrote an opera and it will be performed at the Hollywood Bowl this weekend.

The debut performance of Nebuchadnezzar, which will be directed by Italian performance artist Vanessa Beecroft, will take place on Sunday (November 24) in Los Angeles. Kanye‘s Sunday Service performers will be featured during the event, as well as Peter Collins & Infinities Song.

During a chat on Apple Music’s Beats 1 last month, Kanye talked about the project while discussing his Yeezus tour.

“[God] is saying, Let me take this Nebuchadnezzar-type character—Nebuchadnezzar was the king of Babylon, and he looked at his entire kingdom and said, I did this,” he said. “I stood on the top of the mountain talking about Yeezus, saying, ‘I’m a God’—I had a guy dressed as Jesus.”
