The multi-platinum Hip-Hop artist is slated to perform Saturday, September 3rd during a two day Call of Duty event in Los Angeles for fans of the series. Other than his infamous Taylor Swift interruption at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, Kanye is known for chart topping songs like “All Of The Lights” and has been a prominent figure in Hip-Hop for years.
