If the title of their forthcoming new album Let God Sort Em Out doesn’t make it clear, we’ll say it plain: Pusha T and Malice are as laser-focused as ever as they ready the first Clipse full-length in nearly 16 years. With a July 11 release date for the Roc Nation-released project now confirmed, the two, whose combined catalog of classics more than speaks for itself, are hitting the promo circuit, starting with a GQ interview in which King Push looks back on his and Drake’s 2018 feud.
“I think after everything that had been done, I don’t think there was ever anything subliminal to be said ever again in life,” Push, who also reflected on the fizzling-out of his and Ye’s once-fruitful artistic relationship in the new interview, told Frazier Tharpe. “Not only just musically, like bro, I actually was in Canada. I actually had a show and made it home. So, I can’t pay attention to none of that. I did the dance for real, not to come back and tip-toe around anything.”
Asked if he would ever pick back up where he and Drake left off, Push echoed his past remarks on that chapter, suggesting he has little interest in any such thing at this point in his journey.
“Man, I would only engage again if I felt like it,” he said.
Elsewhere, Push pointed to Drake’s status as “a fan,” specifically using the $ome $exy $ongs 4 U artist’s much-discussed Pharrell auction jewelry haul as an example of this status in action. As for Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s own back-and-forth, which dominated music headlines for the better part of a year (and still has legs halfway through 2025), Push had no complaints in terms of comparing how the blockbuster beef played out with the path his and Drake’s own feud ultimately took.
Push also addressed Drake’s legal action against UMG over Kendrick’s Hot 100 hit “Not Like Us.” The song, which swept all of its categories at this year’s Grammys, landed in the top spot in Complex’s ranking of 2024’s best tracks.
“The suing thing is bigger than some rap shit,” Push told GQ, as seen here. “I just don’t rate you. Damn, it’s like it just kind of cheapens the art of it once we gotta have real questions about suing and litigation. Like, what? For this?”
Fans got the first proper taste of Let God Sort Em Out, produced entirely by Pharrell, with last week’s release of “Ace Trumpets.” The track finds both Push and Malice once again in top form, suggesting we’re all in for one hell of a treat when the full thing drops in July.
