Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign Team Up With Rich The Kid & Playboi Carti For “Carnival”

Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s new album, Vultures 1, is finally here featuring a number of star-studded collaborations across its 16 tracks. One of the early standouts is “Carnival” featuring contributions from Rich The Kid and Playboi Carti. The song is getting plenty of attention for more than just its merits alone, with a headline-grabbing reference to Taylor Swift, a behind-the-scenes feud with Ozzy Osbourne, and more.

As for Swift, Ye raps in the third verse: “I made six Taylor Swift (Ha) since I had the Rollie on the wrist (Ha) / I’m the new Jesus, b*tch (Ha), I turn water to crist (Ha).” It’s not the first time he’s mentioned Swift. He made endless headlines in 2016 with the song, “Famous,” for similarly remarking that he’s the reason for her success.

Kanye West References Taylor Swift On “Carnival”

As for his back-and-forth with Osbourne, the singer was unhappy with West’s performance of “Carnival,” earlier this week, which featured a sample of a live cover of Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man” that the lead singer performed with his solo band in 1983. Osbourne took to social media to complain that he never gave permission for its usage. “.@KANYEWEST ASKED PERMISSION TO SAMPLE A SECTION OF A 1983 LIVE PERFORMANCE OF ‘IRON MAN’ FROM THE US FESTIVAL WITHOUT VOCALS & WAS REFUSED PERMISSION BECAUSE HE IS AN ANTISEMITE AND HAS CAUSED UNTOLD HEARTACHE TO MANY,” he wrote. “HE WENT AHEAD AND USED THE SAMPLE ANYWAY AT HIS ALBUM LISTENING PARTY LAST NIGHT. I WANT NO ASSOCIATION WITH THIS MAN.”

Ye previously sampled Black Sabbath on his song, “Hell of a Life.” It’s not the only sample clearance drama West has dealt with this week, as the estate of Donna Summer also called him out. Be on the lookout for further updates on Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign on HotNewHipHop.

Quotable Lyrics:

Go, go, go, go

Kanye West Makes Questionable Reference To The Jewish Community On First Track Of “Vultures 1”

Discourse seekers only needed to look as far as the first track of Vultures 1 to find some questionable content. On “Stars”, Kanye West makes an eyebrow-raising reference to the Jewish community. “I’ma come through and just black out/ Just black out/ Keep a few Jews on the staff now/ I cash out,” Kanye raps. While not as egregious as a previously heard line about not being anti-Semitic because he had sex with a Jewish woman, the line is likely to incense certain parts of the internet.

Furthermore, it comes less than two months after Kanye apologized to the Jewish community, in Hebrew, for his past antisemitism. “I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any unintended outburst caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to hurt or demean, and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused. I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding more in the future. Your forgiveness is important to me, and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity,” Kanye wrote on social media.

Quavo Was Removed From Kanye West’s “Fuk Sumn” And Fans Aren’t Happy

However, a questionable line about the Jewish community isn’t the only thing about Vultures 1 drawing ire. Reports have emerged indicating that Quavo had a verse removed from “Fuk Sumn” on Vultures 1 and fans are not happy. “Quavo verse >Travis verse aside. Ty has NO aura. The aura coming off of quavo is insane next to weak a– retwist needing a– Ty,” one fan wrote. “I haven’t seen the TL defend quavo like this lol. Seems like Kanye really messed up with removing him on ‘FUCK SUM’,” added another. “Kanye robbed quavo by taking him off fuk sumn. I don’t give a single f-ck about carti, travis or even kanye’s verse on here, quavo was carrying the song bro 😞 SHYYYYT,” a third noted.

Quavo still appears on the album, featuring on the track “Paperwork”. However, people really wanted to hear him on “Fuk Sumn”, which instead features Playboi Carti and Travis Scott. How do you feel about “Fuk Sumn”? Let us know in the comments.

Kanye West Put On Blast By Donna Summer’s Estate For Alleged Copyright Infringement

Following months of teasing, Kanye West has finally dropped his eagerly-anticipated album with Ty Dolla Sign, Vultures 1. The Vultures project is expected to arrive in three installments, and the other two are scheduled to drop in March and April. While in general, the album has been a success so far, not everybody is feeling it. The latest critics to come forward were from Donna Summer’s estate, and they accuse Ye of using her song without permission.

In a recent Story post from Summer’s official Instagram account, the estate claims that Ye had asked to use the late performer’s song “I Feel Love,” and was denied. They note that he changed up a few things before using it on his album. Regardless, they allege that it’s “copyright infringement.”

Donna Summer’s Estate Claims Ye Asked For Permission, Was Denied

Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time Ye’s been put on blast for allegedly using another artist’s work without permission. It’s not even the first time this week. Yesterday, Ozzy Osbourne took to Twitter/X to call him out for using a sample of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” when he was explicitly asked not to. The metal icon’s wife even jumped into the debacle to throw a few jabs at the Chicago MC. “@kanyewest ASKED PERMISSION TO SAMPLE A SECTION OF A 1983 LIVE PERFORMANCE OF ‘WAR PIG’ FROM THE US FESTIVAL WITHOUT VOCALS & WAS REFUSED PERMISSION BECAUSE HE IS AN ANTISEMITE AND HAS CAUSED UNTOLD HEARTACHE TO MANY,” Ozzy wrote. “HE WENT AHEAD AND USED THE SAMPLE ANYWAY AT HIS ALBUM LISTENING PARTY LAST NIGHT. I WANT NO ASSOCIATION WITH THIS MAN!”

As for Sharon, she called Kanye a “pig,” and claimed that he “represents hate.” What do you think of Donna Summer’s estate calling out Kanye West?

Cover Art For Kanye West’s “Vultures 1” Memed By Fans

In the hours after Kanye West released Vultures 1, fans have begun to create meme versions of the cover art. The album cover art shows a scantily clad woman, presumably Bianca Censori, standing with her back to the camera and facing a man dressed like Jason Vorhees, presumably Kanye. The art was actually teased earlier this month by an innocuous Instagram post of Kanye and Censori showing off their phone backgrounds.

Some fans made the artwork more modest, giving Censori a bra and skirt. Others changed the image of Kanye to a stock PNG of Jason Vorhees. The meme versions came thick and fast, especially as the album was briefly removed from Apple Music for 20 minutes. Have you seen any of the cover memes? Do you have a favorite? Let us know in the comments.

Kanye West Posts Conversation About Lack Of “Vultures 1” Spotify Drop

Amid complaints that Vultures 1 has not dropped on Spotify, Kanye West shared a snippet of a conversation about two of the album’s producers asking the same thing. The conversation between “Wayne Create” and Traxster. In the conversation, Wayne says that the album not being on Spotify could hurt the album’s chart position. However, Traxstar assured him that Spotify “always lagged behind” in terms of availability for immediate releases.

The rollout of the long-awaited album has been a lot and chaotic. The album was briefly remvoed from Apple Music for 20 minutes for an unknown reason. However, fans have already declared it to be one of Kanye’s best. It is expected that Kanye will release parts two and three of the album across the next two months.

Rich The Kid Calls Kanye West “The GOAT”

Kanye West

Meanwhile, Rich the Kid has declared Kanye “the GOAT” during a sidewalk interview with Baller Alert. “He is the GOAT, no debate,” Rich said. It’s a fitting declaration as Rich recently collabed with Kanye and Playboi Carti for “Carnival”, which appears on the now-released Vultures I. “Carnival” also caused some pre-release controversy as Ozzy Osbourne claimed that the song contained an uncleared Black Sabbath sample.

Furthermore, the impromptu interview also saw Rich reveal that he is planning to drop a massive bet on the Super Bowl. Rich said he was going to place a $1 million bet on Sunday’s game. The Chiefs and 49ers face off in Vegas in a rematch of the 2020 Super Bowl. An estimated $23.1 billion has been bet on the matchup. That eclipses the estimated $16B put down on bets for last year’s game between the Chiefs and Eagles. However, Rich refused to say which team he was putting his money on. Born and raised in Queens, it’s hard to say which team Rich will be backing.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign Enlist Travis Scott & Playboi Carti For Chaotic, Rage-Inducing “Fuk Sumn”

Vultures 1, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s highly-awaited team record are finally out. When you go into any Yeezy project, expect a big budget and tons of collaborators. This could wind up being one of his most expensive releases, especially because there are three volumes, sampling, etc. One track that had to have cost a pretty penny is “Fuk Sumn.”

Not only does it recruit the ultimate ragers, Travis Scott and Playboi Carti, but there are also eight producers. Kanye is among Timbaland, JPEGMAFIA, Hubi, SHDØW, VEYIS, Digital Nas, and Chrishan. When you have a ton of creative minds on one song, it could lead to disaster. For “Fuk Sumn,” it is the total opposite, thankfully.

Listen To “Fuk Sumn” By Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, Travis Scott, & Playboi Carti

The previous versions of “Fuk Sumn” had Quavo and Playboi Carti on them. But with Ye, we know the first draft is rarely the final copy. Not long before Vultures 1 dropped, Travis was added into the mix. While it would have been cool to hear Quavo on this raunchy and wild party banger, Scott fits right at home on this one. He goes old La Flame in the best way possible. The beat switches help distract you from the fairly boring lyrics. However, “Fuk Sumn” is not about penmanship, it is about having fun and it certainly delivers on that front.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song from Vultures 1, “Fuk Sumn,” by Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, Travis Scott, and Playboi Carti? Is this the best track from the album, why or why not? Who had the strongest performance and why? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to tell us in the comments below. Additionally, keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, and Vultures 1.

Quotable Lyrics:

Brown skin, but you know I had her creamin’ (Ooh)
Janet Jackson by the way I had her screamin’ (Ooh)
She hit the group chat, said “That n**** had me feining” (Ah)

Kanye West & Bianca Censori Phone Backgrounds Revealed To Be “Vultures 1” Teaser

With the release of Vultures 1, an Instagram post from Kanye West earlier this year suddenly makes a lot more sense. The album cover art shows a scantily-clad woman, presumably Bianca Censori, standing with her back to the camera and facing a man dressed like Jason Vorhees. While not confirmed, it is fairly safe to assume that the man is Kanye. Are you a fan of the cover art? Let us know in the comments.

Last week, Kanye posted an image to his Instagram story of himself and Censori showing off their respective phone backgrounds. West’s was a picture of Censori wearing a leather bikini. Meanwhile, Censori’s was a picture of someone dressed as Jason Vorhees. While Censori appears to be topless on the cover of Vultures 1, it is now relatively evident that the innocuous photo was a backdoor teaser for the cover art.

However, Super Bowl shenanigans and GOAT debate weigh-ins aren’t the only things that Rich has been up to lately. Rich recently announced that he will be dropping Life’s A Gamble, his first new album in four years. Furthermore, the new project, which Rich says he has been working on since 2022, is stacked with features. Kanye West, Rob49, Offset, and Travis Barker have all been confirmed for the album, with more features expected to be announced.

Meanwhile, Rich was also spotted filming a music video at a Hawks game alongside Quavo. It’s unclear if that is for Life’s A Gamble or the rumored joint collab between himself, the former Migos member, and Kanye. Rich has said that Life’s A Gamble will be out “Spring 2024” so expect more news in the coming months. Are you excited for the album? Let us know in the comments.
