Kanye West may not be a perfect fit for a social construct. But when it comes to his music, his genius is exceptionally charming. Even when Ye did not give his fans new music for more than a year, they could not stop grooving over the rapper’s old music. In fact, fans appreciate his music so much that they are also reminiscing over old compliments, particularly by Lil Wayne.

Lil Wayne and the ‘Donda’ creator have worked together previously and admire each other’s work. When Lil Wayne appeared on the All the Smoke podcast, he talked about Ye’s genius. The 41-year-old artist said, “He’s a total genius. Plain and simple.” Lil Wayne explained Ye continued being the best at what he did best, which was creating astonishingly amazing music.

With cryptic messages on his social media accounts, the artist teased his collaboration with the 46-year-old rapper.
