Kanye West seemingly still has love for Pusha T, despite the Virginia Beach native cutting ties with him last year.
The Chicago rap icon attended Jerry Lorenzo’s Fear of God fashion show alongside his new wife, Bianca Censori, at the Hollywood Bowl on Wednesday night (April 19).

King Push graced the stage to perform “Feel the Love,” his collaboration with Kanye and Kid Cudi from 2018’s Kids See Ghosts, while modeling some of the famed designer’s new Fear of God x adidas collection.
Ye, meanwhile, was seen vibing out to his former signee’s performance in the audience while sat next to his wife. He was also caught on camera turning up to his 2013 Yeezus track “Blood on the Leaves,” which played during the runway show.
Kanye’s support of Pusha T is notable considering the Clipse lyricist stepped down as the President of G.O.O.D. Music last December over Ye’s controversial antisemitic comments.
Pusha first spoke out against his close collaborator in November, saying Ye’s derogatory comments about Jews were “disappointing.” He reaffirmed this sentiment in an interview with XXL, referring specifically to comments Ye made about Hitler on Alex Jones’ Info Wars podcast.

“It’s beyond that and it’s nothing to tap dance around,” Pusha said. “It’s wrong. Period. But to me, it’s just me and him having a difference of opinion yet again. ’Cause we done had this for years.”
He continued: “He’s not speaking to me now. If you ain’t with it, you ain’t down. And I ain’t with it. I’m not budging on that. I’m not with it. I heard about this new stuff [on InfoWars]. I don’t know. It’s something that just sort of tells me he’s not well, at the same time. I will say that. It’s going to places where it’s no way to move around it.”
As for Kanye and Bianca Censori, the couple got married during a secret ceremony back in January, just months after the rap mogul finalized his divorce from Kim Kardashian.
Censori, who worked with Ye at Yeezy for a number of years, also had plans to fly the Chicago native out to Australia to meet her family, but the Aussie government implied they’d likely stop Ye from entering the country due to his aforementioned antisemitic remarks.

Kanye most recently made the decision to step away from Instagram, deactivating his account without much of an explanation as to why. He had previously been suspended by Instagram following his antisemitic remarks and was then suspended from Twitter by Elon Musk last December after posting an image that included a Swastika.
