There are rap gods, there are collaborations, and then there are Travis Scott and Ye, formerly known as Kanye West. When these two join forces, the rap world stops. Be it their first or their latest, the Travis-Ye collaborations are what fans live for. However, with regular setbacks, unforeseen halts, and random dropouts, as is the custom, courtesy of Ye West, the fandom is often deprived of some of their best works. This is where they give rise to another whole genre of rap music, ‘leaks’. 

With these artists, sometimes the release of a song is not as enthralling to fans as getting hold of an unofficial leak. In a similar instance, Travis Scott and Ye have taken over the internet with the latest leak of 'Can U Be (Pressure)' with a verse of Scott in the 2016 Ye song. A couple of hours ago, a discord server gg/Yeezy put up the song for purchase for the amount of $25,000. Furthermore, it was also announced that the title of the song is 'PRESSURE,' and not 'Can u Be' like Ye’s original verse.

The 'Donda' rapper often tends to give up on songs and considering this song being eight years old, it is one of those long-lost gems that fans had given up. Nonetheless, they have got hackers to their rescue. Trending on X as one of the most hyped leaks in rap history, this song sums up to 4 minutes which includes 40 seconds of new Ye verse, 17 seconds of Travis Scott’s bridge, 20 seconds of some more Travis Scott harmonizing amped up with Ye doing the Glastonbury bridge snippet. 

Additional details have been provided in the group chat with buyers going bonkers over the purchase. The leak went on for an immediate release in a group buy. Following the same, its arrival on X has kicked off a whole different level of heightened frenzy seen in a while. Nonetheless, there have been mixed reactions altogether.
