Flying Lotus working with Kendrick Lamar on forthcoming Yeezus shows

Kanye’s auspicious Yeezus tour appears to have become even more charmed.

The news that Kanye West would be touring the US with Kendrick Lamar was more than enough to get FACT-employed palms rubbing in anticipation. It now seems, however, that another major figure will be pitching in with the Yeezus dates: beat game titan (and GTA V jock) Flying Lotus.

Writing on Twitter yesterday, the rapper revealed: “Been helpin out w the new @kendricklamar show for the yeezus tour. It’s gonna b so amazing.” (ed note: scrolling down the comments, it looks like Joker concurs)

No news at present about the nature of their collaboration, which, given FlyLo’s history as a visual artist, could involve VJ programming rather than DJ duty/musical arrangement credits. Last week, a joint FlyLo/Tyler, The Creator concert at L.A.’s Low End Theory was shut down by riot police; let’s hope FlyLo doesn’t jinx the Yeezus tour, which kicks off on October 19.
