Kanye Trying to Stage a Show in Russia?

Two months ago Kanye West was refused his ambitious request to hold a concert at each of The Seven Wonders of the World [click here if you missed that]. 

Now insiders claim Yeezy is exploring options for holding a concert in Russia...

 From The Sun

KANYE West's forlorn search for a venue to host his shows has reached a "desperate" new low.

Predictably, following his sick online rants about Jesus and Hitler which have seen him virtually canceled all over the world, no one wants to stage his music.

A top music industry insider, however, has revealed Kanye has been pushing to stage shows in Russia, as well as some of their allies.

"This idea is so desperate," the industry veteran told The U.S. Sun. "If he can do a show in Russia, it's over for him in many European countries."

He also claims Kanye's team has approached alleged pro-Putin governmental figures in Hungary and Serbia.

The United States recently announced plans to widen the sanctions against Russia, with over 4,000 companies now on a blacklist.

Many European countries have followed suit, meaning any connection to Russian money could be problematic moving forward.
