Kanye West Hints at Retirement as Rich The Kid Announces New Collaboration
Rapper Rich The Kid shared a text message exchange suggesting that Kanye West, now known as Ye, is considering retiring from music. In the since-deleted screenshot, Ye stated, “I am retiring from professional music,” citing uncertainty about his next steps in the industry. However, Rich The Kid reacted with disbelief, urging Ye not to retire and emphasizing the impact of their collaborative work.
Shortly after posting the texts, Rich The Kid announced on X (formerly Twitter) that he is releasing new music featuring Ye on his upcoming album, Life’s a Gamble, set to drop on July 19. The album includes a track with Ye titled “Plain Jane” and another single featuring Ty Dolla $ign and Peso Pluma. Their previous collaboration, “Carnival,” with Playboi Carti and Ty Dolla $ign, peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Despite Ye’s retirement hint, he and Ty Dolla $ign are scheduled to bring their Vultures listening experience to Korea on August 23. Their follow-up project, Vultures 2, which won them a 2024 BET Award for Best Group, is reportedly nearly complete and could be released soon.

Nigerian singer, Portable shared his thoughts on the comparison between Wizkid and Fela Kuti.
The singer compared and asked if Wizkid has been to prison before, recalling Fela Kuti’s days in prison.
He then added that he has been to prison more than Wizkid.
“You be this, you be that, that one na for your pocket. Me sef I be Biggie man. Do you give people food? I give people, you say you big pass Fela for where. You say you’re the new Fela; has he been to prison before? I’ve been to prison multiple times. I’m bigger than Wizkid.”
Media personality, Daddy Freeze reacts to Wizkid and Seun Kuti’s online feud regarding the comparison between Wizkid and Fela.
Daddy Freeze shared his thoughts and stated how he thinks Wizkid can’t be compared to Fela and they don’t have the same impact.
“Until Wizkid is ready to stand up and stone the government, he shouldn’t compare himself to Fela. Did you know that Fela was released from prison just to prevent him from dying there?”
He then added that Fela was not just a singer but a freedom fighter.
