Kanye West has launched into yet another explosive social media rant, this time aimed at several of his rap peers including Kendrick Lamar and Playboi Carti.
Kanye, who claims to have been blocked from appearing on Carti’s new album Music, appeared to have been triggered by the rapper’s request to be on his daughter North West’s upcoming solo debut.

After Carti tagged Ye’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian on his Instagram Stories and wrote: “Tell my niece North send me a song,” the G.O.O.D. Music founder unleashed an onslaught of angry posts on X (formerly Twitter).
“I DECIDED NORTH WONT BE DOING ANY SONGS WITH CARTI,” he began. “HOW IT LOOK FOR ME TO GET LEFT OFF THE ALBUM AND THEN HE ASK KIM TO HAVE VOCALS FROM MY DAUGHTER. I DONT [GIVE] A FUCK ABOUT NONE OF THIS INDUSTRY SHIT AND HOW ITS A SKIMS LINE IN THE FIRST PLACE. AND I DONT GIVE A FUCK WHAT NO COMMENTS. THE MAN HAS THE FIRST AND FINAL SAY OVER HIS KIDS.”

“I HELD MY TONGUE ABOUT [NOT] BEING ON CARTI ALBUM. HIM GOING TO MY EX TO ASK MY DAUGHTER TO BE ON A SONG 2 DAYS LATER WAS TOO FAR. NOBODY FINNA PLAY WITH ME,” he added.
The controversial rap legend then directed his venom at Kendrick Lamar, who he recently criticized over his contributions to Carti’s aforementioned album.

“I HAAAAAATED NOT LIKE US,” he wrote, referencing Lamar’s hit collaboration with Future and Metro Boomin that ignited his beef with Drake.
Kanye then boldly attempted to goad the Compton kingpin into a rap battle, writing: “KENDRICK PLEEEEASE COME DISS MEEEE ON BEHALF OF LUCIEN GRANGE PLEEEEEASE.”
The 47-year-old later returned to making antisemitic remarks while calling out frequent collaborators Pusha T and Ty Dolla $ign.
“NOBODY GET A PASS. I WAS A PART OF SO MANY OF THESE N-GGAS SUCCESS AND A LOT OF N-GGAS LET THE JEWS CONTROL THEM,” he continued. “PUSHA TALKING ABOUT HE DONT AGREE WITH MY POLITICAL OPINIONS. BRO I HATE ALL THESE N-GGAS THAT IVE SAT AND CHOPPED SONGS FOR.
“TY AINT HAVE TO USE THE TERM HATE SPEECH,” he added, referencing the singer’s apparent denouncement of his controversial views. “EVERY N-GGA IN THE INDUSTRY IS A SLAVE TO THIS F-GGOT ASS JEWISH INDUSTRY. EVERRRYYYYY ONE. DO YOUR FUCKING DISS SONGS OR PULL UP.”
Further criticizing his Vultures partner for distancing himself from him, Ye added: “I DONT NEED TO BE CONDONED.”

In another dig at Carti, West sarcastically asked the rapper’s ex-girlfriend Iggy Azalea for their son to do a collab with him: “HEY IGG[Y] AZALEA I NEED TO GET ONYX VOCALS ON MY SONG THATS MY NEPHEW. OH AND IMA RAP ABOUT ONE OF YOUR BUSINESSES. THE FUCK?”
He continued: “HEY NORTH YOUR DAD GAVE ME MY BIGGEST SONG AND CO SIGN AND I LEFT HIM OFF OF MY ALBUM BECAUSE OF HIS TWEETS. OH BUT NORTH YOU MY NIECE I GOTTA USE YOUR VOCALS.”
Ye then posted pictures of himself with the late Virgil Abloh, Travis Scott, Kid Cudi and Playboi Carti and wrote: “ALL TURNED THEY BACK WHEN I SPOKE THE TRUTH. THE JEWS PUNKED YALL. OH AND THE FRENCH.”
He also took aim at Tyler, The Creator, despite just recently thanking the Odd Future founder for his continued support.

“THIS N-GGA HAS NEVER MADE A MEMORABLE SONG,” he wrote. “HES LIKE IF AN ARTIST CHECKED EVERY BOX OTHER THAN HAVING ANY GOOD VERSES OR SONGS AND HIS LAST ALBUM RIPPED OFF MY WHOLE LANGUAGE.”
Future and Metro Boomin were next in the firing line as Kanye wrote: “THESE N-GGAS CALLED ME TO GET ON THE LIKE THAT REMIX AND THEN AFTER I MENTIONED LUCIEN GRANGE THEY DIDNT PICK UP MY CALL OR PUT THE SONG ON DSPs.”
None of the artists singled out have yet responded to Kanye, who has made headlines in recent weeks for similar outbursts on social media.
