Hip hop star Kanye West is silenced in the middle of his surprise performance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
West's performance was cut short at festival in Indio, California.
The rapper, 38, was not listed as a musical guest at the annual event this year but decided to drop by and make a surprise performance on April 15.
West took the stage at the Colorado Desert, joining A$ap Rocky.
However, only a few minutes into his performance, his mic was cut off by organizers because the two rappers had gone overtime. "Make some noise for a legend!" A$ap Rocky said.
Headliners for the 2016 Coachella are Guns N' Roses, Calvin Harris and LCD Soundsystem. They are joined by other musical guests like Ellie Goulding, Sia Furler, James Bay, Zedd, Halsey, Ice Cube and more. Celebrities flocking to the festival include Hailey Baldwin, Kendall Jenner, Jaden Smith, Alessandra Ambrosio, Vanessa Hudgens, Kellan Lutz, Taylor Swift, Brooklyn Beckham, Katy Perry, Emma Roberts and Kylie Jenner.
