Watch: Kanye West Performs Two More Tracks On Jools Holland

Self-professed ‘number one rock star on the planet’ showcases his ‘Yeezus’ LP.

Watch: Kanye West Performs Two More Tracks On Jools Holland

Following on from Tuesday night’s Later Live… With Jools Holland, which featured Drenge, Lorde and a ship-obsessed Sting, further performances have emerged from the 300th Jools episode.

Two standouts come in the form of Kanye West’s ‘New Slaves’ and ‘Blood On The Leaves’. The former features Charlie Wilson, who pretty much stole the show up until the point of Kanye playing the latter with zero backing. His performance of ‘Blood On The Leaves’ was a bonafide show-stealer, and it’s a nice precedent to a forthcoming interview with Zane Lowe, which is set to come in four-parts, gaining its first airing on Monday night.

The preview of Kanye’s interview with Zane makes it look like anything but your standard sit-down-and-chat. It ends with him shouting - at nobody in particular - about being the “number 1 rock star on the planet”.

Watch the interview preview and both Jools Holland performances below.
