Kanye West didn’t hold back during a recent livestream, where he took aim at some of his closest collaborators.
This includes Playboi Carti and longtime ally Pusha T — over what he sees as a lack of loyalty and public support. Ye first addressed his issues with Playboi Carti, voicing frustration over being left off I AM MUSIC, Carti’s long-anticipated album that the two reportedly worked on for years.
As caught by Kurrco, West took issue with Carti working with him for a number of years but then leaving him off of his new album, Music. The rant about Playboi Carti isn’t the first time West has criticized the rapper in recent weeks. He previously alleged that Carti reached out to Kim Kardashian in an effort to collaborate with North West.
“I love Carti bro, but you don’t take your position and your album we’ve been working on for 5 years to go against me. I ain’t no joke,” he yelled, getting more erratic. From there, he turned his attention to his long-time collaborator:
“Pusha T, all that tough guy sh*t. Where the tough guy sh*t? … I bled for you. I asked for one thing: Use for your voice, your stability. People don’t think you’re crazy. People respect you. You stood on my shoulders to take Drake out.”
