Ty Dolla Sign is a steadfast supporter of Kanye West, despite the controversies surrounding the Chicago artist. In a recent interview with Billboard’s deputy editorial director Damien Scott, Ty Dolla expressed his admiration for Ye, calling him “one of the best people I’ve ever met.” He went on to praise Kanye as “the best artist of this generation, besides me,” showing unwavering loyalty to his collaborator.
The anticipation for their joint album, Vultures 1, did not waver, even in the face of potential controversies surrounding Kanye. Ty Dolla was confident in the music they created, referring to it as “undeniable.” He explained that Kanye has a way of reaching the top, despite any controversial remarks he may make, because the music speaks for itself.
Pusha T also chimed in on why artists continue to work with Kanye, emphasizing the visibility and musical genius that comes with being associated with him. Despite any past issues, the collaboration with Kanye often brings benefits that artists are seeking in the industry.
Despite achieving a No. 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Carnival,” Ty Dolla Sign criticized Apple Music for a lack of promotion for their album. Kanye also expressed dissatisfaction with the traditional digital service provider model and entertained the idea of releasing Vultures 2 solely on his website. Ty Dolla Sign appears to support Kanye’s decision, preferring to focus on the music while leaving marketing and distribution choices to him.
Regarding the release date of Vultures 2, Ty Dolla remained cryptic, teasing that the project is “almost done and could be released any day now.” Fans eagerly await the arrival of this highly anticipated album, eager to hear the musical magic produced by the collaboration between Ty Dolla Sign and Kanye West.
