Chaos erupted outside Kanye West's secret concert in New York City after thousands of desperate fans descended on the venue - forcing officials to cancel the event and requiring dozens of police officers to disperse the crowd.
Kanye was heard asking for Mayor Bill de Blasio to shut down the block in a Snapchat video taken by wife Kim Kardashian early Monday morning after a stampede outside the gig.
With no room to move, the street in Manhattan's East Village was clogged with people charging to get to the front of the swarm around Webster Hall, and some fans caught in the mayhem claimed they were pepper sprayed as the situation got out of control.
Chanting 'Kanye' and 'Pablo', fans climbed on top of cars and scaffolding, and hung out of windows to get a better view as rumors swirled that the rapper was set to perform his latest album, The Life of Pablo, outside.
