Pusha T Doesn’t Plan to Work With Ye Again: ‘That’s Definitely in the Past’

Don’t count on a Ye-produced Pusha T track anytime soon.

The Clipse sat down with The Guardian recently as the hip-hop duo continues to promote their new Let God Sort Em Out album, and Push was asked directly if he would ever consider working with Ye (formerly Kanye West) again.

“Yeah, that’s in the past,” he answered bluntly. “That’s definitely in the past.”

Before he was asked that particular question, though, he was asked if he could mention some of the good times they had as members of G.O.O.D. Music.

“Just as a rap aficionado, well, being there was special,” he replied. “Creating ‘So Appalled’ and ‘New God Flow’ were some of my favorite memories. The G.O.O.D. Friday series, that was crazy, too. The albums I dropped during that time, like Daytona and It’s Almost Dry, they are very, very strong offerings. It goes without saying that me and Ye made great things together.”

Push has distanced himself from Ye in recent years and told GQ that he doesn’t think his former collaborator is a man after Ye took to social media and admitted that he missed being friends with him.

Later in the interview, the brothers from Virginia were asked about their favorite albums of all time, and the answers Malice gave may surprise some — especially about the music he listens to while working out — while Push took a more rap-centric approach.

“Listen, I love The Killers, I love Red Hot Chili Peppers, even Billy Joel,” Malice said. “When I work out in the gym, I have Coldplay playing, or U2’s The Joshua Tree. It’s funny, because when I watched MTV back in the 1980s, David Bowie was always on there. All these years later and Bowie is still at the forefront today. I think that says something about true talent and how it can carry on through the ages. It even outlasts your death.”

Pusha added, “I’m always torn between Mobb Deep’s The Infamous, Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, Jay-Z’s Reasonable Doubt, and Biggie’s Life After Death. I can drive anywhere in the world with those four albums and I will be happy.”
