It looks like Ye won't be making music with Playboi Carti anymore after he put the Opium founder on blast for requesting to work with his young daughter.
Their fallout came to a head on Monday, March 17, after the "EVIL J0RDAN" rapper reposted an Instagram Story from Kim Kardashian. Ye's ex-wife had shared Carti's song "Fine Sh*t" in which he shouts out her Skims brand. Carti shared Kim's post and told her to have his "niece" North West send him a track. The request didn't sit well with Ye. He called out Carti on X and accused him of purposely leaving him off his MUSIC album.
"I DECIDED NORTH WONT BE DOING ANY SONGS WITH CARTI," Ye posted to X in all caps. "HOW IT LOOK FOR ME TO GET LEFT OFF THE ALBUM AND THEN HE ASK KIM TO HAVE VOCALS FROM MY DAUGHTER I DONT A F**K ABOUT NONE OF THIS INDUSTRY S**T 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."
"HEY IGGG [sic] AZALEA I NEED TO GET ONYX VOCALS ON MY SONG THATS MY NEPHEW OH AND IMA RAP ABOUT ONE OF YOUR BUSINESSES THE F**K?" 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 and Carti previously collaborated on songs like "CARNIVAL" off Ye's VULTURES 1 album along with "Off The Grid" and "Junya" from Ye's Donda album. The two also worked together on Carti's new album. Ye produced "2024" but the song didn't appear in the original version. It was later added to MUSIC V2, which is only available on Carti's website for now. Nonetheless, Ye alleges Carti left his vocals off the album.

"I HELD MY TONGUE ABOUT MOT BEING ON CARTI ALBUM," he wrote in a separate X post. "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."
After lashing out at Carti, Ye shifted his focus to other past collaborators and called them "users." He claimed Tyler, The Creator has "never made a memorable song" and alleged he "ripped off my whole language" for his new album Chromakopia. He called out Future and Metro Boomin for recruiting him for the "Like That (Remix)" and then allegedly dodging him. He even slammed Kendrick Lamar by claiming he "HAAAAAATED" his Grammy award-winning song "Not Like Us."
Ye's rant about Playboi Carti and other artists happened a couple of days after he started beefing with Kim over North and his kids' trademarks. His war of words started after he posted a new song called "Lonely Roads Still Go To Sunshine" featuring vocals by North West, Jasmine Williams, Diddy's son King Combs and Diddy himself, who contributed via jail phone. Kim reportedly tried everything she could to halt the release of the record by citing the trademark she took out for all their kids and getting a judge involved. Ye provided proof of her actions and revealed his reply.
"Amend it or I'm going to war and neither of us will recover from the public fallout," he replied. "You're going to have to kill me."
The song was eventually deleted, but it's not clear if it was because of Kim's legal moves. As of this report, Playboi Carti has not responded to Ye's rant.
