Kanye West is bringing his weekly gospel series “Sunday Service” to weekend two of Coachella. The performance is taking place atop “The Mountain,” a hillside at the Coachella campsite. It’s streaming live on the Coachella Curated YouTube. Watch below.
The Easter “Sunday Service” performance has included renditions of Stevie Wonder’s “Do I Do,” Gap Band’s “Outstanding,” and more. The livestream has shown Chance the Rapper, Kid Cudi, Ty Dolla $ign, and producer Mike Dean, among others. Around 45 minutes into the stream, the gospel choir began with moments from “Ultralight Beam” and “Ultralight Prayer,” followed by the hymn “How Excellent,” “Father Stretch My Hands” (both the Pastor T.L. Barrett and Kanye West versions), and “Power.” They eventually sang an unreleased West song, informally titled “We Have Everything We Need.” Find a partial setlist below.
The “Sunday Service” sessions have featured regular West collaborators (like Kid Cudi and 070 Shake), played host to a number of celebrities (including Katy Perry and David Letterman), and featured the debut of new music. To commemorate today’s Coachella set, West is selling “Sunday Service” merchandise on his website.
Last night, Kanye West joined Kid Cudi during the latter’s Coachella set. They performed “Reborn,” “Father Stretch My Hands, Pt. 1,” and more.
