Ty Dolla $ign is in a significant pickle.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock or have your phone’s notifications permanently off (which, let’s face it, are basically the same these days), you’re aware of the explosive rant Kanye West went on this past weekend. Starting Friday, Ye unleashed a series of hateful tweets, targeting communities ranging from Jewish to White to Black groups. The controversy surrounding his posts quickly became a trending topic across social media platforms.
What makes this situation even more complicated is the timing: Ty Dolla $ign, who is known for his collaborations with Kanye, dropped a track titled “Wheels Fall Off” on Friday, sparking concerns among fans that he might be endorsing Ye’s inflammatory language. However, Ty Dolla $ign wasted no time clearing up the confusion.

Yesterday, Ty Dolla $ign posted a powerful message on Instagram, stating, “I do not condone ANY form of hate speech towards ANYBODY.” This clear stance was a direct response to Kanye’s racist rants that flooded Twitter, distancing Ty from Ye’s controversial views.
While Ty Dolla $ign has continued to work with Kanye on upcoming projects like Vultures 3 and Tycoon, it’s apparent that he couldn’t stand by Ye’s actions without speaking out. This decision to take a stand against hate speech highlights Ty Dolla $ign’s commitment to maintaining integrity, even when his professional connections could have complicated his stance. Kudos to him for making the right call.
