Kanye West has been called out by NFL player Travis Kelce‘s dad, over Vultures 2bars aimed at Taylor Swift, the younger Kelce’s girlfriend.
Ed Kelce allegedly took to Facebook on Thursday (August 8), and expressed his frustration with guest Lil Wayne‘s lyric on the track from West and Ty Dolla $ign, called “Lifestyle.”
On the song, Weezy raps: “Ice up in my veins, old flames tryna melt me / I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce.”
Kelce took to his alleged Facebook profile to share a Daily Mail article about West’s song, and wrote: “Mental illness on full display.”
Ed Kelce’s shot at Ye isn’t the only drama surrounding Vultures 2 these days.
Earlier this week, West claimed that his and Ty Dolla $ign‘s Vultures albums are being held hostage by Atlantic Records and may be taken down from streaming services.
Kanye shared screenshots of a text message from his manager John Monopoly, who appeared to suggest that Atlantic wanted renumeration from the projects as Ty is signed to their label.
In the message, Monopolo wrote to Ye: “Co-head of Atlantic Julie Greenwald just called me. She just got fired. She said the new head is not going to give us a grace period to handle Atlantic’s compensation.
“She suggested that I let Too Lost and Create know that 40% of all revenue from V1 and V2 needs to be paid to Atlantic. She’s saying that if we don’t handle immediately Atlantic will issue take downs for both albums. Pls advise.”
“This is what ‘they’ do to independent artists,” Kanye wrote over the screenshot on his Instagram Stories, although he didn’t share his reply to Monopoly’s message.
The Chicago rap legend then publicly asked who the new head of Atlantic is. It was announced earlier this week that Elliot Grainge, the son of Universal Music Group boss Lucian and founder of 10K Projects, will be taking over at the record company.
Although Vultures and Vultures 2 were both released independently through Kanye’s YZY imprint, Ty Dolla $ign is signed to Atlantic as a solo artist, meaning they have rights to his work.
As Audiomack co-founder Brian Zisook pointed out on X, “A record agreement gives the label permission to exploit their music — exclusively –during the full term. Atlantic hasn’t seen a dime from the albums… so of course they want to be paid.”
