Kanye West Celebrates ‘Carnival’ Hitting No. 1, Calls Out Drake, Adidas & More

Kanye West took a moment to celebrate the success of his collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, the single ‘Carnival’ from their joint project Vultures: Vol 1, as it made its mark on the Billboard Hot 100. Teaming up with Playboi Carti and Rich the Kid, Ye also dropped the official music video on YouTube. Expressing his gratitude, he shared a statement on Instagram, extending thanks to Ty Dolla Sign, Playboi Carti, and Rich the Kid, for attributing the song’s success to their collective effort and the support of their fans who stood by them through thick and thin, championing resilience against systemic manipulation.

Within his reflection, Kanye, of course took the opportunity to address certain grievances, calling out Drake for what he perceived as an untimely move by including Lil Durk at the beginning of the Vultures rollout. Drake recently brought along Lil Durk into the closing dates of his tour, It’s All a Blur – Big as the What?, alongside J. Cole.

“And it’s f**k Drake for taking Durk right at the beginning of the Vultures role out.”

Durk is featured on the title track of Vultures with Ye and Ty Dolla Sign.

Ye also took the opportunity to once again, Adidas, as well as the U.K. outlet, Daily Mail, and Hailey Bieber.

“F**k Adidas and everybody who works there,” he wrote. “F**k everybody at the fashion houses that sided with Gabby and Hailey Bieber.”
