The rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has been announced as a headliner for the Wireless Festival in London, according to festival organizers.

The booking comes as Bloomberg reports that Ye earned approximately $33 million from two recent concert performances, though details about the specific venues and dates of these shows were not immediately available.

Ye has faced significant controversy in recent years following antisemitic statements and activities that have drawn widespread criticism from industry figures, sponsors, and advocacy groups. These controversies previously led to the loss of major business partnerships and endorsement deals.

The Wireless Festival announcement has reportedly resulted in some sponsors withdrawing their support from the event, though the specific companies and financial impact have not been disclosed by festival organizers.

The festival booking represents one of Ye's most prominent announced performances since the controversies began. Industry observers are watching to see whether this signals a broader return to major music events for the artist.

Representatives for Ye and the Wireless Festival could not immediately be reached for comment regarding the booking or sponsor reactions.
