Soulja Boy, however, claimed that his verse on the track ‘Remote Control’ was cut from the final version.
In a series of tweets in August 2021, Soulja Boy addressed Ye, writing: “Idk how to feel, Kanye sent me that song ‘Remote Control’ and I don’t hear my verse on it… hmm f*** that n***.”
In November, Last month, Ye apologised to Soulja Boy after claiming that he dropped him from his recent album because his verse was “trash”.
“Yo it’s Ye,” Ye wrote in a screenshot posted on Instagram. “Love you bro. I should have told you I wasn’t gonna use the verse.”
