Travis Scott gave a shoutout to Kanye West, aka Ye, during his concert in India last weekend. The rapper also suggested that they might look to collaborate on a new project.
Scott has hailed West as one of his inspirations and a mentor in interviews before. However, there appears to be a rift in recent years. Ye accused Scott of removing him for his fourth studio album, Utopia, released on July 28, 2025.
However, Scott appears open to a reconciliation. The rapper performed in New Delhi, India, on October 18 and 19. During one of his shows, he said on stage (as caught by Kurrco):
"Shoutout to my brother Ye, man, ain't gon' lie, we might have to do something special..."
Fans online have reacted to this, as one X (formerly Twitter) user wrote:
"Didn’t ye diss him?"

Travis Scott hails Kanye West as his mentor

The FE!N rapper has hailed Kanye West, aka Ye, as his inspiration and also credited him for helping him build his career. The two artists have collaborated on tracks like Wash Us In The Blood and Piss On Your Grave.
In a covert story with Complex, published on April 8, 2025, Scott said:
“Sh*t, man. That’s my kid’s uncle. That guy took me in when I was young, when I was like 19. He taught me a lot about music. And not even just ‘taught’ me, but he allowed me to experience the creation of music.”
“To create music with him, it’s what helped me grow, making a lot of beats. Whether it’s writing and collabing on music and film or clothes or whatever the f*ck it is, just constantly learning.”
Moreover, Travis Scott performed at Circus Maximus in Rome on August 7 in 2023, after the release of Utopia. He brought out Ye on the stage and said:
“There is no Utopia without Kanye West. There is no Travis Scott without Kanye West. There is no Rome without Kanye West. Make some noise for Ye."
They performed their 2021 song, Praise God, which was part of Ye's album, Donda.
Kanye West accused Travis Scott of taking four of his songs for Utopia
Scott released his fourth studio album, Utopia, on July 28, 2023. Meanwhile, in an interview with DJ Akademiks, published on March 31 this year, Ye accused Scott of taking four of his songs. He said:
“Trav left me off his album. Took four of my songs from the ranch in Wyoming. My choruses, my exact singing lines — replace me with him, or put Future, SZA on the joints. With no explanation, the sh*t just comes out.”
However, it appears Scott is willing to put the differences behind him based on his recent comments. There has been no official response from Ye about it at the time of writing.
