American rapper Kanye West is to present "Ye Live in Shanghai" on July 12 at the Shanghai Stadium – a venue with a 72,000 capacity.

Though ticket prices are still "to be determined," the show has already garnered strong interest, with over 60,000 users marking "I want to see it" on ticketing platform Damai shortly after the announcement.

Last September, Kanye held a global listening party in Haikou. Tickets for that event sold out quickly. Among the cities with the highest number of ticket buyers were Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Beijing, and Chengdu.

Kanye performed in Shanghai on September 23, 2008, at Hongkou Football Stadium as part of his Glow in the Dark tour.

Widely regarded as one of the most influential hip-hop artists and producers in the world, he has won more than 20 Grammy Awards and produced music with massive global reach.
