How Ye & Playboi Carti Went From Friends to Foes: Here’s the Timeline

The two rap stars are having a very public fallout, but how did they get to this point?

While once the closest of collaborators, Playboi Carti and Ye (formerly Kanye West) seem to be having a very serious falling out.

The two rap stars have been tied together since at least 2016, and both have linked for a handful of hits over the years. On March 14, 2025, that streak seemed to be continuing with the release of King Vamp’s third album, MUSIC. Ye had co-produced the song “BACKD00R” featuring Jhene Aiko and Kendrick Lamar, but Ye did not rap on the album.

This may be because — as Ye also speculated — Yeezy has continuously spewed hateful and antisemitic claims. Ye has continuously engaged in hate speech since at least 2022, when he called for “death con 3 on jewish people” and unapologetically rocked White Lives Matter T-shirt at a fashion show. The antisemeitc rhetoric caused him to loose multiple deals collectively worth around $2 billion, and it’s slowly impacted his reputation as an artistic genius.

While Carti never spoke publicly on these actions, Ye theorized after the release of MUSIC that the Whole Lotta Red rapper had been distancing himself from him. After some more spewing on X that even brought Iggy Azalea — the mother of Carti’s son — into the mix, Carti eventually replied.

The back-and-forths have continued since, showing that the once fruitful relationship between Ye and Carti is no more. So how did the two men get to this point? Here’s a timeline of Ye and Carti’s relationship over the years.
