Kanye West has been out of the headlines in recent weeks, but he's said to be heading to Ghana to perform as a surprise guest at the Black Star Line Festival.
According to DJ Ebenezer Donkoh, Ye will go to Africa and perform at a festival in Accra hosted by two of his buddies and fellow Chicago natives, Vic Mensa and Chance The Rapper.
"I'm gathering information that Kanye West will be the surprise act at this weekend's Black Star Line Festival in Ghana," the New York DJ tweeted on Thursday (January 5).

The Black Star Line Festival will take over Accra on Friday night (January 6) with a free event for fans starring T-Pain, Chance The Rapper, Vic Mensa, Erykah Badu, Jeremih, Tobe Nwigwe, and more.
Vic Mensa said ahead of the festival that he is providing clean water to several sites around Ghana. Drilling for the boreholes is expected to take three to four weeks, with 10-15 days of on-site drilling followed by pipework and cable installations.
"We're building three boreholes in different communities in Ghana to provide clean drinking water, the first of which is the Asokore Zongo in Koforidua, where my family lives," Mensa explained.
Kanye West has been Missing during the Christmas season, and according to some rumor, his former business manager is having difficulty finding him. However, Rone of the Barstool Sports podcast says he saw Yeezy eating dinner at the opulent Amangiri resort in Utah at the beginning of the year.
“My wife sits back down and she’s like, ‘Did you see who’s over at that table?’ I didn’t see and I went back over and it was Kanye,” he said. “He’s at the Amangiri, bro, he’s just over there chillin’, dude. Everybody else is signing NDAs I’m not signing shit. Kanye’s at the Amangiri cheesing. The biggest smile I’ve ever seen on his face. You could’ve seen every one of his perfectly white teeth and he was just hanging out with another couple.”
Furthermore, Ye made news in December after making an unexpected appearance in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. In one moment, a mural in the backdrop depicts Kanye as a prophet wearing a white robe and wielding a chalice and a torch, which confused fans given his previous issues.
