We’ve all felt Kanye West’s presence looming over the political arena since he announced his 2020 run for president at the VMAs last month -- and now, according to NBC, Yeezy is scheduled to appear at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser in San Francisco on Oct. 10.

Kanye partisans shouldn't get too excited, though. The primary purpose of this appearance is to perform songs from his upcoming album Swish, which does not yet have a release date. The event is described as an "afternoon concert," in order to distinguish it from ordinary fundraisers.
President Obama will also be there, hopefully to impart some incumbent wisdom upon West between songs.
Tickets to the DNC event range in price from $250 to $10,000, but the memories will surely be priceless.
