The two closed the Cudi segment with “Ghost Town,” the ye track that features Cudi, before Ye finished the night alone with “Moon” and “Runaway.” Fan account @yzyupdates and Kurrco both posted clips of the pair performing together on the globe stage.
How does this fit the Ye and Kid Cudi reunion?
Arlington was the second time Kid Cudi has joined Ye on a 2026 stadium stage. The first came at Soldier Field in Chicago on September 4, 2026, their first shared stage since Coachella 2019.
The thaw started earlier in the year. Cudi opened his Rebel Ragers Tour in Phoenix on April 28, 2026 by dedicating the Kids See Ghosts track “Reborn” to Ye, as Billboard reported. The duo released Kids See Ghosts as a joint album in 2018.
Why did Erykah Badu perform at the Ye Dallas concert?
Erykah Badu was born in Dallas, and AT&T Stadium introduced her as “Dallas’ own.” She performed “Didn’t Cha Know,” “On & On,” “Love of My Life” and “Tyrone” mid-show, between Ye’s “Father” and “Run This Town.”

André Troutman also joined Ye for five songs across the night, including “Heartless,” “Flashing Lights” and “Stronger.”
Did the Ye Dallas concert break the attendance record?
The venue says yes. AT&T Stadium posted on X after the show that the night was the “most attended rap concert in US history.” Kurrco reported that Ye has now set the U.S. stadium rap attendance record three times in 2026, citing the stadium.
Neither the venue nor the promoter has released an official attendance figure. Ye’s previous record came at Reliant Stadium in Houston on October 31, 2026, where HipHopWired reported 80,210 fans. An iHeartRadio report on the same show cited a promoter release from IKON Presents with a figure of 74,412, so the Houston number itself is not settled.
