Kanye Dedicates Performance of “I Wonder” to Drake and Ian Connor During South Korea Show
During a concert in Seoul, South Korea, on Friday, August 23, Ye (formerly known as Kanye West) dedicated a performance of his track “I Wonder” from *Graduation* to Drake and Ian Connor.
Ye hosted another Vultures concert in Korea this week, delivering an extensive 74-song set featuring tracks spanning his entire career. He performed material from each of his albums and took a moment after performing “Stronger” to make the dedication. “This one’s for Drake, this one’s for Ian Connor,” he said as the opening notes of “I Wonder” began to play.

Although Drake has yet to publicly respond to the unexpected shout-out, Ian Connor acknowledged the dedication with a tweet that read, “And I wonder.”
And I Wonder.

Ye’s relationship with Drake has been a rollercoaster, starting with early collaborations before devolving into a highly publicized feud. Their conflict eventually led to a joint concert aimed at raising awareness for the release of Larry Hoover. However, tensions resurfaced, especially after Ye took direct aim at Drake in his remix of Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar’s “Like That,” a track that reignited the “rap civil war” of 2024.

"No matter who you are, I know God hears you, no matter what you did, you know God forgives you. Heavenly father thank you for this night. Thank you for my friends & family. Please watch over them. Watch over everyone going… pic.twitter.com/tokefJ8w1s

When introducing the remix, Ye commented, “Everybody is very, very excited about the elimination of Drake.” Ian Connor, who has been closely associated with Ye, often served as a spokesperson during Ye’s ban from Instagram. Connor, however, has faced serious allegations of sexual assault and misconduct from multiple women.
Before Friday’s concert, Ye was spotted at a South Korean airport with his wife Bianca Censori and his children North, Saint, and Chicago West. This show marked Ye’s first performance in South Korea in nearly 15 years.
