Kanye West appears to have thrown fans out of one of his gigs after business cards were thrown at him on stage.

The rapper was performing at Washington state's Tacoma Dome on 16 December when he confronted crowd members.

Speaking to fans in the front row of the arena gig he said: "Whose business card is this? I've seen it come from that direction."

He then says: "All four of you guys have got to go."

'Risking lives'

taken from a crowd member posted online shows West tell the crowd not to throw items on stage that "we're going to slip on".

"These cubes go 20ft in the air, fam. We risking our lives up here," he said into the microphone.

"Unless one person raised their hand and says 'I was the one who did it' all that whole section has got to go."

He then resumes his performance by playing his track Diamonds From Sierra Leone.

The venue did not respond when they were contacted for a comment.

West is currently touring the US with long-time collaborator Jay-Z as part of their Watch The Throne project.

Part of the show sees the rappers perform solo playing their own material.

The pair released a joint album in August.
