Kanye Reportedly “Taking a Year Off” According to ‘Donda’ Collaborator and Artist Vory

Kanye West

Kanye has maintained a pretty low profile ever since being banned from Instagram for harassing Kim Kardashian and her new boyfriend, Pete Davidson. His performance at the Grammys was canceled over his remarks about Trevor Noah. In April, there were reports of Ye telling Kim that he was going away somewhere to “get better.” However, these claims were quickly shot down by his new publicist Jason Lee.

Now, close collaborator and artist, Vory, recently shared with Complex that Ye is taking a year off from music and his public life.

“The person who made me realize my twisted thoughts weren’t so twisted was Ye, because we think alike. I was just talking to him today,” Vory said. “We’ve been talking through my best friend who’s also his assistant, because he hasn’t been wanting to talk to anybody. He’s taking a year off, and he was like, ‘Damn, you think Vory is going to be mad at me if I don’t go to his release party?’ And I was like, ‘Nah, you’re straight, bro.’ He’s battling his own sh*t. That’s my dog, I learned a lot from him.”

Ye, along with Kendrick Lamar and Future, is set to headline at Rolling Loud Miami next month. However, this update from Vory makes his appearance very questionable.

Vory And Kanye West Soul Search On The Bleary-Eyed ‘Daylight’

Say what you want about Kanye West’s creative output lately, but he’s shown himself to be an incredible benefactor to the new artists he supports. For instance, after Fivio Foreign appeared on Donda, Kanye returned the favor, granting him the single “City Of Gods” for his debut album, B.I.B.L.E. Likewise, Louisville rising star Vory, who has been working behind the scenes since 2016, also lent his vocal expertise to three Donda tracks and has now received his own blessing from the production icon.

Vory’s new single “Daylight” was originally intended for Donda, but after some reworking, now appears destined for the Louisville rapper/singer’s upcoming debut album, Lost Souls. Built over a sample of Dione Warwick’s 1973 single “You’re Gonna Need Me” (notable for appearing on Usher’s Confessions track “Superstar” and J Dilla’s “Stop!” from Donuts), the new song finds the two artists facing their anxieties and seeking comfort in one-night stands, accompanied by plenty of soul-searching.

“Daylight” is the second single to be released ahead of Lost Souls, which is scheduled for a June 3 release. The first single, “Do Not Disturb,” was released on May 13 and featured Bleu and Nav. Other artists due to appear on the album include Memphis singer/rapper Fresco Trey, Atlanta rap-crooner Landstrip Chip, and Jamaican genre misfit BEAM.

Lost Souls is due 6/3 via UMG.

Vory’s new single “Do Not Disturb (feat. Yung Bleu and NAV)” is now available to stream via Dream Chasers Records/Universal Music Group on all platforms.

Young Martey produced “Do Not Disturb,” which is the first new single off the Dream Chasers signee’s upcoming album, Lost Souls. Vory croons about romantic conflict over a guitar-heavy beat on “Do Not Disturb,” with emotional lyrics: “Take a trip and put your phone on do not disturb/Putting in OT but you keep working my nerves/Not trying to go back and forth about who hurt who first/You ain’t gotta question, baby, it’s yours.”

VORY’s upcoming album will be his first since releasing his self-titled album in December 2020, which featured the song “Ain’t It Funny (with Meek Mill).” After regular collaborations with Kanye West on the legend’s last two albums, Donda and Donda 2, VORY’s fame has only risen since then.

You can hear the new release below.
