Studying Time: 3 minutes
But when Travis Scott was trying ahead to the duo’s first studio launch in 16 years, he’s in all probability feeling much less enthused after listening to the second single from Let God Kind ‘Em Out.
Alongside together with his child mama, Kylie Jenner, Travis discovered himself unexpectedly known as out on the monitor “So Be It,” which dropped on Tuesday.

It’s value noting that neither Travis nor Kylie is talked about by title. However a reference to Scott’s Utopia album and his ex whose “lip gloss is poppin’” left little doubt as to whom Push was referring.
Followers may need been simply as shocked as Travis, as Kylie’s ex typically steers away from intense feuds.
Nevertheless it appears he ran afoul of Pusha, who defined the meat in a brand new interview, at one level going as far as to name Travis a “wh-re.”
Pusha T explains new beef with Travis Scott
It appears the difficulty started when Scott used footage from Clipse’s recording classes to advertise his single “Meltdown,” which featured Drake (with whom Pusha T has well-documented beef).
“The true context of that is we were in Paris, literally working, and he was calling to play P his new album. He came to [Pharrell’s] studio [at Louis Vuitton HQ, where Clipse recorded most of Let God Sort Em Out]. He interrupted a session,” Push instructed GQ.

“He sees [me and brother Malice] there. He’s like, ‘Oh, man, everybody’s right here,’ he’s smiling, laughing, leaping round, doing his fucking monkey dance. We weren’t into the music, however he needed to play it, needed to movie [us and Pharrell listening to it].
“And then a week later you hear ‘Meltdown,’ which he didn’t play. He played the song, but not [Drake’s verse]. He’s done this a lot. He has no picks. He’ll do this with anybody. He did it with ‘Sicko Mode’”
Push notes that regardless of his supposed loyalty to Drake, Scott was an early fan of the Kendrick Lamar diss monitor “Like That,” encouraging Kendrick to carry out the monitor on the famed Rolling Loud Pageant.
“He was on the [Rolling Loud] stage like, ‘Play that, play that!’ He don’t have no picks, no loyalty to nobody,” he stated including:
“He’ll jump around whatever he feels is hot or cling onto whatever he feels is hot. But you can play those games with those people…We’re not in your mix. Keep your mix over there.”
The Kanye issue
However whereas these incidents may need been the ultimate straws, it appears the actual subject goes again even additional than that, stemming partially from Scott’s continued allegiance to Push’s former buddy and mentor Kanye West.

“I personally have been removed from that crew and those people for a minute,” Push stated, in reference to Kanye and his supporters.
“So, that’s where my issue comes in—like, dawg, don’t even come over here with that, because at the end of the day, I don’t play how y’all play. To me, that really was just like…he’s a whore. He’s a whore,” the Clipse legend defined (right here, GQ famous, print did not convey “the disdain in Pusha’s delivery.”)
“It’s the principle of it. It’s the principle of what I’m saying. That filthy quality that they have about themselves, that lack of loyalty. Travis really has that. He’s proven.”
We’re guessing quite a lot of rappers are gonna be reminded of simply how principled the Clipse brothers will be when Let God Kind ‘Em Out drops subsequent month.
