Ye Dreams Of Apologizing To Former Friend And Collaborator JAY-Z
Ye hasn't seemed too concerned with other people's feelings over the last few months, but he is always full of surprises. The artist formerly known as Kanye West recently revealed that making amends with Jay-Z has been on his mind. This past Saturday (May 31), he wrote 'All my dreams have been about apologizing to Jay Z' in a now-deleted post on X. Why he deleted the tweet is unclear, but it was par for the course as he has deleted many tweets with seemingly important statements this year. Some of his deleted tweets, specifically about Hov's children, are likely why he feels guilty about their falling out and wants to apologize at all. 'WAIT HAS ANYONE EVER SEEN JAY Z AND BEYONCES YOUNGER KIDS,' he wrote on X in March. 'THEYRE RETARDED. NO LIKE LITERALLY. AND THIS IS WHY ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION IS A BLESSING. HAVING RETARDED CHILDREN IS A CHOICE.' He eventually deleted the tweets, not because he felt bad about them, but because he didn't want to lose his account on the app. 'I NEED EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT I TOOK THE POST ABOUT JAY Z AND BEYONCE'S FAMILY DOWN AND JERRY LORENZO'S FAMILY DOWN BECAUSE THERE WAS A POSSIBILITY OF MY TWITTER BEING CANCELLED BECAUSE IM A GOOD PERSON.' Ye wrote in a follow-up tweet. 'I TOOK IT DOWN LIKE DOWN SYNDROME. GET IT. AM I RIGHT. F**K THE WORLD. REAL TALK. F**K EEEEVVEEERREEE BODY.' He later said that neither Hov nor anyone else has power over him, and evidently, his next series of tweets was meant to prove that very idea. 'AT LEAST JAY Z AND BEYONCÉ GET TO RAISE THEIR RETARDED A** KIDS,' The Chicago producer added. 'AINT NO CELEBRITY EVER SAID NOTHING TO COME TO MY AID WHEN IT CAME TO THESE WHITE WOMEN TAKING MY KIDS. CAUSE THEY WAS MAD I WAS WEARING TRUMP HAT. F**K JAY Z AND HIS WHOLE FAMILY. ESPECIALLY HIS SHOOTERS. AND NOW THAT YOU THINK JAY Z PU**Y A** MADE ME TAKE IT DOWN I GOT TO DOUBLE DOWN.' Neither Jay-Z nor Beyoncé has commented on Ye's harsh statements. Given all that has occurred over the last few years, it would be difficult to imagine Hov being willing to return to any form of friendship. Nonetheless, the duo have more than enough legendary contributions to music in their run together, namely their 2011 album Watch The Throne. Listen below.
