Kanye West has never been one to hold back, and his latest comments are shaking up the rap world once again. This time, Ye is making it clear that he’s not a fan of Kendrick Lamar and wishes he wasn’t featured on Playboi Carti’s upcoming album.
Ye Speaks His Mind—Again
During a recent studio session, Kanye openly expressed his frustration over Kendrick’s rumored involvement on Carti’s anticipated project, reportedly saying:
“I don’t like his music. I wish he wasn’t on there.”
While Ye and Kendrick have never been directly at odds, this statement adds a new layer of tension between two of the most influential artists in hip-hop today.
Kanye vs. Kendrick: A Deeper Divide?
This isn’t the first time Kanye has taken aim at major artists. From Drake to Jay-Z, Ye has never hesitated to throw shade at hip-hop’s elite—but calling out Kendrick, who is widely regarded as one of the most lyrically gifted and culturally impactful rappers, is a bold move.
Some fans think Ye’s comments may stem from Kendrick’s recent subliminal shots in his music, including the viral “wacced out murals” lyric many interpreted as a dig at white comedians—and possibly Ye’s close associates. Others believe Kanye is simply speaking his truth, refusing to hold back on an artist he doesn’t vibe with musically.
Carti’s Album: Will Ye’s Influence Keep Kendrick Off?
Playboi Carti’s upcoming album is one of the most highly anticipated projects of the year, and rumors have swirled about major features, including Kendrick Lamar. But with Ye reportedly having a heavy hand in the album’s creative direction, fans are wondering if his dislike for Kendrick could affect the final tracklist.
Will Playboi Carti side with Kanye and remove Kendrick? Or will he keep the Compton MC on the project, ignoring Ye’s criticism? Hip-hop fans are waiting to see how this plays out.
