Kanye West broke his own record this past Saturday as his show at Dallas’ AT&T Stadium became the most-attended hip-hop concert in U.S. history, with 83,132 fans, and the fifth-highest-grossing concert in U.S. history, with more than $18 million in reported gross revenue generated in a single night, according to his rep.

It is the third time this year that West, who has legally changed his name to Ye, has broken his own record: His concert at Houston’s Reliant Stadium on Halloween night brought in around 80,210 fans, and his two April shows at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, which saw him sell over 74,000 tickets on each of its two nights.
