Since Kanye West aka Ye began fanning the flames for a ‘Vultures’ takeover last year, fans have been glued to the screens non-stop for the whereabouts of the three-volume record. After a few months of extensive pleading and a couple of vanishing acts, the rapper reignited the spark with two volumes of the album, leaving his fandom on an irrecoverable streaming loop as the drumbeats grew louder for the third. However, shortly after 2025’s curtain-raiser, a ‘Vultures 3’ update has left fans fanatic amidst the heightening anticipation for the forthcoming ‘Bully.’

Jasper on X recently dropped a tantalizing hint for ‘Vultures 3,’ sharing a screenshot of an Instagram DM exchange between a curious fan and seemingly Ye. The fan’s consecutive messages were a one-two punch with the first probing question about a potential ‘Vultures 3’ drop, followed by a bold prediction, “Vultures 3 & Bully 2025.” Ye remained mum on the first message, but his reaction to the next more or less had fans convinced about the fan’s prophecy. 

As the wait was growing cold on the missing volume of the ‘Vultures’ series, Ty Dolla $ign had fans in a frenzy last September when he dropped a bombshell hint about it on 88 Keys’ live stream, teasing, “V3 bouta rip heads off.” Although updates on the absent record have been scarce since, his consultant, richnorules, shared a picture of Ye, Dolla $ign, and himself on Instagram last November, leaving fans full of hope about a potential discussion about ‘Vultures 3.’

Fans were somewhat accustomed to the idea by now that ‘Vultures 3’ has been put on an indefinite halt amidst the developments for ‘Bully.’ However, the recent teaser has left fans wheezing as they expect Ye to kill two birds with a stone.

Ye fans are no strangers to him going back on his words, and if his year-long rollout of 2/3rd of the ‘Vultures’ series taught anything, it is to expect the unexpected. Thus, when the teasers for ‘Bully’ kept outranking the progress of ‘Vultures 3,’ fans gave up hope on the no-show, reinstating their anticipation for the next big thing. However, the recent hints have resuscitated the dormant fervor for ‘Vultures,’ reigniting a passion lying in wait.

Fans are back to square one with their anticipation hitting the roof for two albums, eyeing a 2024 déjà vu in the best of the ways.

On the flip side, the wait turned some loyalists into skeptics with a few doubting the conversation’s reality. However, with most fans on edge following the teasers, fans are finally counting down to the Ye-centric festive season full of new music. Although a few raised eyebrows remain, his die-hard supporters are visibly salivating at the prospect of a nostalgic revival, blending the old and the new with a ‘Vultures’-like bullseye.
