There’s a very short list of artists who can pop up unannounced at an already boonta Coachella Festival and make the Californian dreamland even more fucking hype. After his set-stealing turn at A$AP Rocky’s performance, it’s pretty apparent that list is topped by none other than Yeezus himself.
Observe, all ye unbelievers:

Kanye’s spell turning all those sun-baked punters into absolute froth-monsters was shortlived, as the crew – boo, hiss – cut his impromptu visit short by cutting the mic.
