The long-delayed joint project arrived early Saturday morning (February 10) following the pair's listening party at New York City's UBS Arena. Includes features from Future, Lil Baby, Playboi Carti, Freddie Gibbs, North West and more. The set appears to be released under the Ye's Yzy label, marking the rapper's first without the backing of Universal Music Group or Def Jam.
The double-digit effort boasts previously released single “Vultures” featuring Bump J and Durk. Ye and Ty recently released another video where they twinned with their daughters and tugged at fans' hearts for the “Talking/Once Again” music video.
Vultures 1 marks the first project for West since his string of hate speech and anti-Semitic comments, which have resulted in companies including Adidas and Def Jam distancing themselves from the 46-year-old rapper.
In late January, Ye posted a trailer revealing it Vultures will be released in three different volumes, with the first originally scheduled to arrive on February 9th, with the rest following on March 8th and April 5th. He later confirmed the dates and various album covers in a post on his Instagram Story. The first volume It was originally supposed to be released in October, but kept getting delayed, first to December and later in the new year.
Vultures 1 is Ye's first album since his 2021 album release Doda, which won a pair of Grammys the following year, most notably Best Rap Song for “Jail.” As for Ye and Ty, their collaborations date back to “Ego Death” (2020), Ye's “Everything We Need” (2019), “Real Friends” (2016) and “Only One” (2014).
