However, there seems to be tension between them in recent years. Ye accused Scott of removing him from his fourth studio album, Utopia, which was released on July 28, 2025. Despite this, Scott appears open to reconciling. 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..."

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, 2023, after the release of Utopia. He brought out Ye on 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, as indicated by his recent comments. There has been no official response from Ye about it at the time of writing.
