Another week, another record – reportedly. Ye (Kanye West) played AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Saturday 7 November, and the show is being reported as the most attended hip-hop concert in US history, beating the mark he set in Houston only a week earlier.

One important caveat: no official attendance figure had been released at the time of HotNewHipHop’s report. The stadium reportedly holds up to 100,000 for sold-out events, and fans believe the crowd was close to that. The Houston show on Halloween reportedly drew 80,210. Read our Houston story here.

Kid Cudi and Erykah Badu on stage

Kid Cudi joined Ye for ‘Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1’ and ‘Ghost Town’, and the pair walked out together for ‘Runaway’. Cudi also did ‘Pursuit of Happiness’ (the Steve Aoki remix) and ‘Day ‘N’ Nite (Nightmare)’.

The surprise of the night was Erykah Badu, who performed ‘Didn’t Cha Know’, ‘On & On’, ‘Love Of My Life (An Ode To Hip-Hop)’ and ‘Tyrone’. Ye’s close collaborator André Troutman was also there.
