Kanye West is reportedly exploring the possibility of acquiring Lil Durk’s contract with 300 Records, seeking to continue their collaborative efforts. This decision was prompted by the controversial track “Vultures,” a recent release featuring Lil Durk and Bump J alongside Ye and Ty Dolla Sign.
According to TMZ, insiders revealed that Todd Moscowitz, the co-founder of 300 Records and current CEO of Alamo Records, did not authorize Durk’s participation in another song on Kanye’s upcoming album. This development occurred despite the previous collaboration between Durk and Ye on Cardi B’s “Hоt SҺit” in mid-2022.
Over the weekend, Kanye, Lil Durk, Ty Dolla Sign, and Bump J performed “Vultures” for the first time at Blu Dubai nightclub. This appearance coincided with reports of Kanye and Ty working on a joint project in Alula, Saudi Arabia.
In a recent gathering at the Royal Atlantic Hotel in Dubai, Kanye, Ty, Chris Brown, and Bianca Censori listened to “Vultures.” The song features Kanye addressing his anti-Semitic controversy through lyrics like “How I’m anti-semitic, I just [had relations with] a Jewish [person].” Kanye West has faced criticism for previous anti-Semitic remarks, including references to Һitler and the “Jewish underground media mafia.”
Chris Brown also faced backlash for his association with Kanye during the listening session. Brown clarified on Instagram Stories that he is not anti-Semitic and creates music for a global audience, urging people not to misconstrue his intentions or support for hate.
