New York City, N.Y.

Kanye West didn’t let his canceled headline concert at the Governors Ball Music Festival slow him down Sunday (June 5), instead making a surprise appearance alongside some of the G.O.O.D. Music roster at Hot 97’s Summer Jam before causing chaos on the streets of New York with a secret pop-up show that never ended up happening.

The surprise show was first planned for Webster Hall, and thousands of fans crowded outside the downtown Manhattan venue hoping to get in. They chanted songs and slogans, climbed onto cars and scaffolding, and were eventually just told to go home.

One man was reportedly arrested, for disorderly conduct.

Kanye attempted to turn the show into an impromptu street party, to no avail.

Eventually the venue shut down the idea of the concert, citing safety issues.

Kanye eventually made a quick appearance on the streets near the venue and was rushed by screaming fans.

Then rumors of another location popped up.

But didn’t pan out either.

Eventually Kanye’s wife Kim Kardashian gave a Snapchat update from bed, explaining that nothing was going down but that they’d tried.
