AceShowbiz - Kanye West is looking to buy out Lil Durk's contract. The Chicago rapper wants to free his friend from his current record label Alamo Records after it blocked a collaboration between the two, TMZ reports.
Sources claim to the news outlet that Ye and Durk had worked together on a new track that was planned to be included in the former's new album that he's currently working on in Saudi Arabia and Dubai. However, the label's CEO Todd Moscowitz allegedly refused to give a clearance for Durk's verse to be released in the aftermath of the two rapper's latest collaborative song "Vultures".
In other related news, the Yeezy designer performed the track live for the first time at Blu Dubai nightclub on Sunday, November 26. He was joined by Durk, Ty Dolla $ign as well as Chicago rap legend Bump J during the performance.
Ye made headlines over the new song, which many dubbed anti-Semitic. On the track, he raps, "How am I antisemitic? I just f**ked a Jewish b***h." He also shades his former manager Scooter Braun as he spits bar, "I just f**ked Scooter's b***h," he raps before citing the Columbine High School shooting tragedy.
The Grammy-winning artist also sparked rumors that he's cheating on wife Bianca Censori with his lyrics on the song. He brags, "I don't know who I f**ked last night, I got Alzheimer's." He also raps, "Got pregnant in the threesome, so whose baby is it? Whose baby is it?"
Upon listening to the song, fans wondered if Ye talked about his relationship with Bianca on the track. "Wonder if any of this is directed towards Bianca? Is he admitting he's cheated on her?" one fan questioned. One other suggested, "I feel like after reading this in full we know he's cheated on her. Proof is in the lyrics, no?"
