Kanye West on Sunday night closed out a Governors Ball with plenty of highs and lows. The weekend-long festival was shut down early on Friday due to torrential rains, which ended several musicians' sets throughout the day before completely canceling the event's first day. A muddy, messy, stressful weekend was capped by the most anticipated performance of them all: Kanye West. The polarizing MC, whose Yeezus arrives on June 18, performed previously heard tracks off the set, "Black Skinhead" and "New Slaves," in addition to new cuts "On Site," "I Am A God" and "Send It Up."
