Pusha T On Current Relationship With Ye: 'I Don't Think He's A Man'
Clipse is gearing up for their first group release in over a decade with upcoming album, Let God Sort 'Em Out. During a promo discussion with GQ, Pusha T opened up about the state of his relationship with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, after their business and personal relationship crumbled in late 2022. The interview comes days after Ye took to Twitter/X to declare, 'I miss me and Pusha's friendship.' According to Push, however, that won't be enough to bring the former collaborators back together. He starts by saying that his and Ye's friendship began to unravel long before the producer's 2022 anti-semitic rants put the nail in the coffin, admitting that, 'the last few months or years of his time with Kanye were him 'playing the industry game' more than anything.' 'I realized at certain points that I was really alone in everything that was going on as far as rap drama, so on and so forth,' Push shared. The rapper previously stated on The Joe Budden Podcast that Ye was iffy with his support of Pusha T in his battle with Drake. Push added that the energy within Ye's camp became concerning at one point. 'I'm in a collective of a lot of individuals. Everybody's working, but I really got sh*t to do, and I leave and it's one energy, and then when I come back, the energy's off. And then you hear about the sidebar conversations. You got your homeboy who coming up to you like, 'Yo, they was saying this when you left.' I'm thinking that we all in this collectively getting busy. But in all actuality, everybody had their own agendas. And I feel like I was the only one who didn't. My agenda was for the squad. So from that point on, I just looked at everybody differently, and I looked at it as, We're just going to make music. We're going to get beats. We're going to write some raps. And we going to keep it moving.' The Virginia MC added of Ye's most recent rant against him, 'It's like, bro, you've been mentioning me, screaming about me… you got every soul believing that I've done such a great injustice to you. And that's a lie. He goes on his rants. The one thing that I can say about him is that he knows that every issue that he's having and crying about online right now, I've told him distinctly about those things, distinctly. So when he gets up there and with his KKK mask and he's screaming behind it like a pro wrestler—he got to scream behind a mask. He don't talk to me like he talks to others. 'We made some great sh*t, bro. We did,' Pusha acknowledged. 'But…let me tell you something. He's a genius. And his intuition is even more genius level, right? But that's why me and him don't get along, because he sees through my fakeness with him. He knows I don't think he's a man. He knows it. And that's why we can't build with each other no more. That's why me and him don't click, because he knows what I really, really think of him. He's showed me the weakest sides of him, and he knows how I think of weak people.' Pusha was also able to acknowledge some good Ye has done, sharing, 'The greatest thing he did and why I am okay with where me and him are right now—and I'm cool with staying that way—is because at the end of the day, my truth is my truth, but I still respect what he did in the business. And he speaks ill about the music we've made and giving me certain records, but the one thing he did give me was all the profits back from the Def Jam deal.' Check out the full GQ interview here.

Wiz Khalifa On Why He Believes Earth Is A ‘Flat Plane': ‘It's Only Because I've Travelled So Much'
Wiz Khalifa seemingly believes Earth is flat and "we live on a flat plane". Wiz Khalifa seemingly believes Earth is flat. The 'Black and Yellow' rapper has rejected the notion the planet is round and is convinced that humans reside on a 'huge flat plane". Asked if he thinks Earth is round, he said in a Patreon episode of 'The Joe Budden Podcast': 'No. 'I just believe that we live on a flat plane, like a huge flat plane. 'It's only because I've travelled so much." But guest host and academic Marc Lamont Hill then asked Wiz if he had ever travelled to the edge of the Earth. Seemingly referring to the supercontinent of Pangaea, he said: 'Nah, it's not that. I think that there's more masses than just what we see because it was one thing before and it spread out. 'Because when I travel, the routes that we take and how we do it, it's not possible to go up and down. You're just going straight. That's the only reason I think that." The 37-year-old musician also cast doubt on space exploration. He said: 'I don't believe in space exploration at all. I don't believe that they explore space as much as they say that they do." Despite his comments, the 'See You Again' hitmaker's latest album, 'Kush + Orange Juice 2', features a photo of a round Earth on its cover. The record is a follow-up to his 2010 album but Wiz recently admitted he 'wasn't into doing a sequel" and 'would always leave 'Kush + Orange Juice' alone", but his thoughts changed when he began working on the record. He told 'I just thought, 'What would be the most satisfying for the fans and the people who support me? Should I start over and do something brand new, or re-create something that they already love and that they're already used to?' 'So that's what made me make the decision to work on a follow-up."

Wiz Khalifa shares bizarre theory on why he thinks planet Earth is a 'flat plane'
Wiz Khalifa has been talking about his theory on the shape of the Earth, as he reckons we're living on a 'flat plane' despite all evidence to the contrary. About 2,500 years ago, Pythagoras put down his triangles for a bit and said he thought the Earth was round, and a couple of hundred years after that, Aristotle realised that the circular shadow cast by our planet during an eclipse must mean the planet was round. For avoidance of doubt, our planet is very much a sphere, not a perfect sphere, but a sphere nonetheless. However, Wiz Khalifa reckons he knows better than all that as he was recently asked if he thought the Earth was round and he said 'no.' The rapper was speaking on The Joe Budden Podcast when he outlined his theory, saying: "I just believe that we live on a flat plane, like a huge flat plane." As for how he knows this, Khalifa said that he's 'travelled so much' and in that time he found it was 'not possible to go up and down.' "I think that there's more masses than just what we see because it was one thing before and it spread out," the rapper said. "Because when I travel, the routes that we take and how we do it, it's not possible to go up and down. You're just going straight. That's the only reason I think that. "I don't believe in space exploration at all, I don't believe that they explore space as much as they say that they do." Flat Earthers ideas don't tend to survive contact with reality, as one of the notorious conspiracy theorists decided to travel to the North Pole to prove the world was flat. Instead he ended up providing the world was round, and actually admitted that he'd got it wrong. Flat Earthers don't have much respect in the scientific community either. Should Wiz Khalifa ever run into Professor Brian Cox, he can expect to be biffed on the head by the beloved scientist with a copy of Sir Isaac Newton's 1687 book Principia. NASA scientist Dr James Garvin was once asked how we know the Earth isn't flat, and he pointed out that explorers circumnavigating the globe would have fallen off the edge of the planet if it was flat. Instead they were able to sail around the world, and every day planes and ships make that same journey, which must mean they're either all in on this grand conspiracy or the theory is bogus. Astronauts in space have even tried to disprove the Flat Earth theory by showing us what our planet looks like from above.
