As Ye (formerly Kanye West) continues to spend time in Spain, he’s still finding time to fire away on his X account. West once again went after Kendrick Lamar and Tyler, the Creator, whom he deemed to be “overrated” and to be on an “equal” playing field when it comes to their rapping ability.
“Name one good Tyler The Creator bar Name an actual good Kendrick line Like you really wish you had said that level bar,” he wrote on Wednesday night.
Ye went on to say that Lil Wayne has “way more” bars than Kendrick and the Compton native doesn’t have any rhymes that “I wish I said.”
“Broooo Kendrick Lamar can not rap,” he claimed. “Wayne got waaaay more life bars I got more bars Kendrick doesn’t have one bar where I say I wish I said that Kendrick and Tyler the two most overrated so called artist Please order more security… Kendrick and Tyler raps are about equal honestly.”
West has continued to jab at Lamar since Playboi Carti recruited K. Dot for multiple tracks on his Music album and left Ye off the project altogether in the process.
“Everyone knows I washed Kendrick on No More Parties in LA,” Yeezy said in March of their 2016 The Life of Pablo collaboration.
At this point, it’s unclear why West is feuding with Tyler, the Creator. Ye claimed that Tyler has “never made a memorable song” during an X rant in March.
This n—a has never made a memorable song,” West argued. “He’s like if an artist checked every box other than having any good verses or songs, and his last album ripped off my whole language.”
Ye has considerably changed his tune when it comes to Tyler, the Creator. Back in 2015, following their “Smuckers” collab, West credited Tyler and Odd Future with putting a “battery in [his] back” to continue pushing the boundaries of hip-hop with projects like Yeezus. “I don’t think there would have been a Yeezus if it wasn’t for you,” he said during a studio session.
