Video: Kanye West Live at Coachella

Kanye West performed for nearly two hours at Coachella last night, repping a radically different career phase than we saw in his 2006 mid-day appearance. Chopping up the original “P.Y.T.” sample into “Good Life” was magical, he sported new Air Yeezys, 20 ballerinas, blah blah blah… Our secret favorite moment was suspecting that he used no vocal processing when he climbed the pitch staircase of up-up-ups in “E.T.” Thanks to Dunny Rosé for posting the individual songs; 
Stream: Twista f. Waka Flocka Flame, “Hands Up, Lay Down”
