Kanye West has announced that he is pulling the plug on a planned joint album with Playboi Carti after he was allegedly blocked from appearing on Music.
Carti’s long-delayed third album finally dropped on Friday (March 14) and featured no appearances from Kanye, despite their prolific collaborations in recent years.

In a series of since-deleted tweets, the outspoken rap legend addressed his absence from the star-studded project and the consequences that it will have for his working relationship with the Atlanta native.
“Jewish business forced Carti to not put me on the album,” he wrote, before suggesting that he was also prevented from appearing on Travis Scott‘s Utopia. “Same thing happened with Trav.”

Ye then claimed that he and Carti were working on a full-length album together but he has since decided to cancel it.
“WE WERE WORKING ON PROJECT CALLED CARTI YE IM SORRY THAT THIS WONT HAPPEN NOW. From Carti’s actual twin [heartbreak emoji],” he added.

The Chicago native also posted what would have been the project’s artwork, which shows Kanye wearing a black KKK outfit next to Carti who is rocking a black hoodie and fur coat.
“Carti ain’t do nothing wrong. This how the Jewish mob practice coercion to get all my family not to work with me,” his antisemitic rant continued. “They made Ty write the words HATE SPEECH. And it’s the same thing they did with Trav.”
Kanye West has already had his say on Playboi Carti’s latest album and claimed that he was not a fan of Kendrick Lamar‘s contributions.
Despite the fact that he has worked and toured with the Compton rapper in the past and even co-produced one of the songs he features on, “Backd00r,” Ye wrote on X: “I DONT LIKE KENDRICK LAMARS MUSIC. HE RAPS VERY GOOD BUT I DIDNT NEED TO HEAR HIM ON CARTI ALBUM.”
Kendrick delivers a guest verse on “Good Credit,” on which he seemingly addresses Drake’s defamation lawsuit over his diss song “Not Like Us,” while he also has guest vocals on “Mojo Jojo” and “Backd00r.”
Yeezy did, however, show love to the songs “Crank” and “I Seeeeee You Baby Boi,” posting screenshots of him listening to both along with complimentary captions.
