Travis Scott has opened up about his complicated relationship with Kanye West in a recent Complexcover story—just weeks before what seems to be a quiet rift between the two longtime collaborators.
In the interview conducted back in February, the Utopia rapper had nothing but praise for Ye, saying:
“That’s my kids’ uncle… That guy took me in when I was 19. He taught me a lot about music. Not even just ‘taught’ me—but allowed me to experience creating music. Whether it’s writing, fashion, film, or music, he helped me grow.”
However, soon after the interview was recorded, fans noticed that Travis unfollowed Kanye on social media—a move widely believed to be linked to Ye’s renewed antisemitic rants.
Kanye didn’t take the unfollow lightly. He reposted a fan’s screenshot of it and went on a chaotic rant, praising Drake while taking jabs at Virgil Abloh and accusing former collaborators of betrayal.
“Drake the realest one of those three,” Kanye wrote. “Yes, it’s f*** Virgil and anyone else who worked for me then used me.”
Despite the drama, Travis and Kanye share deep creative history. From their G.O.O.D. Music days to collaborations like “Fuk Sumn” off Vultures 1, the two helped shape each other’s sounds. Beyond music, they share a family tie—Travis has kids with Kylie Jenner, and Kanye with Kim Kardashian, making their children cousins.
Whether this fallout is permanent or just another chapter in a rollercoaster friendship, fans are watching closely.
