In recent years, Kanye West has been seen as somewhat of a controversial figure. With the rapper having zero filter and sharing his thoughts with the world, he has time and time again found himself in some rather hot water. His behavior even put his album with Ty Dolla $ign at risk with the rappers being unable to secure a distributor for the longest time.

While their album woes came to an end last month, it has now managed to achieve another major win that no one had seen coming.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), it was revealed that Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign's 'Vultures 1' had become the most streamed Hip Hop album on Spotify this year. With 837 million album streams, the rapper managed to overtake 21 Savage's album, 'American Dream'. Although Ye's album has been dominating the charts ever since it was released last month, fans were hoping to see Metro Boomin and Future's recent album on the list, too.

The collaboration had been teased last year. However, the hype for the album was taken to a new level just days ago, with the tracks finally dropped. While fans had expected various features on 'WE DON'T TRUST YOU', there was only one that seemed to catch everyone a little off guard. It was the one that featured Kendrick Lamar.

Although everyone had expected a sick beat and some dope bars, they ended up getting a diss track that surprised them all.

For years now, Kendrick Lamar has proved that he too can be hailed as a lyrical genius like Kanye West and Lil Wayne. Just like the other two icons, he also had a knack for taking shots at his rivals in his smooth-flowing lyrics. Most recently, the rapper aimed J. Cole and Drake in his verse on Metro Boomin and Future's 'Like That'. While the song was catchy, not everyone seemed pleased with the rapper shading hip hop's Big Three.

So far, the other two rappers have not yet acknowledged Lamar's unanticipated diss. However, there could be a chance fans could see Cole and Drake team up once again to shoot back. Apart from the two rappers, fans also speculated whether the 36-year-old had shaded West while he was at it. However, no one seemed to have an answer about that.
