Why Kanye West Postponed His Australia Tour

Kanye West has postponed his May tour of Australia so he can concentrate on new music.

West announced Tuesday that he’ll postpone seven dates in five cities scheduled for May 2 to 11 until Sept. 5 to 15 because of “unexpected timing requirements” to finish his new album, expected to be released later this year.

The announcement included no other details about the 36-year-old Grammy Award-winning rapper-producer’s new album. The follow-up to 2013’s divisive but critically acclaimed “Yeezus” LP will be one of 2014’s most anticipated releases.
