Rapper Kanye West has added eight new shows to make up for sets the United Kingdom and others made him scrap \u2014 including one in San Antonio that\u2019s drawing criticism from some who don\u2019t want him performing here either.<\/p>\n

Facing continued backlash for his antisemitic and Nazi-sympathising comments, West \u2014 now known as Ye \u2014 lost his travel permits to the United Kingdom and was forced to cancel stops on his \u201cYe Live Concert Tour.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now he\u2019s supposed to hold a concert at the Alamodome on July 4, after two shows in Tampa, Florida on June 26 and 28.<\/p>\n

The tickets are currently selling on Ticketmaster from about $127.50 to more than $1,460 per ticket.<\/p>\n

But on Monday, opponents of the event are planning to urge leaders to shut down the San Antonio show as well.<\/p>\n

Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones appears ready to join their cause.<\/p>\n

\u201cI support canceling the Ye concert,\u201d Jone wrote on social media on Saturday. \u201cMilitary City USA should not host someone with a record of hate speech and antisemitic comments in a city-owned facility like our Alamodome.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last year West, who had already made some shocking comments about Jewish people in the past, started selling swastika T-shirts and released a song called \u201cHeil Hitler.\u201d<\/p>\n

The blowback was swift and Adidas canceled his lucrative clothing partnership.<\/p>\n

West later chalked the moves up to his struggle with bipolar disorder, and in January, purchased an ad in The Wall Street Journal apologizing to the Jewish community before launching another concert tour.<\/p>\n

But United Kingdom said it wasn\u2019t enough, and a major music festival had to be canceled and tickets refunded.<\/p>\n

Italy also barred West\u2019s concerts, amid pushback from members of the Jewish community. <\/p>\n

West is a best-selling artist with 24 Grammy Awards who had announced his intention to run for U.S. president in 2020 and 2024.<\/p>\n
