Pusha T and Malice talk about their reunion and why a Ye collab is ‘definitely in the past’

Pusha T made it plain in a recent interview with The Guardian, published on Thursday, that his musical collaboration with Ye is now over, as his The Clipse reunion is underway, and Kanye West is not expected to be included. He said:

“Just as a rap aficionado, well, being there was special! Creating ‘So Appalled’ and ‘New God Flow’ were some of my favorite memories. The Good Friday series, that was crazy, too."

He continued:

“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.”

He finally concluded by saying:

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

What happened between Pusha T and Kanye West?

The comments are consistent with what Pusha has said in previous years, following his public feud with West. Pusha spoke to GQ in June, with his brother and Clipse collaborator No Malice, on why the relationship ended. Pusha said:

“We did… He’s a genius. And his intuition is even more genius level, right? But that’s why me and him don’t get along, because he sees through my fakeness with him. He knows I don’t think he’s a man. He knows it. And that’s why we can’t build with each other no more."

Pusha T added:

"That’s why me and him don’t click, because he knows what I really, really think of him. He’s shown me the weakest sides of him, and he knows how I think of weak people.”

Although not specifically addressing West, the Guardian reporter followed up in their interview by asking if they'd be willing to let go of beef if one of his "rap enemies ever apologized."

He replied:

“I’m not mad at anybody. I’m good. I’m happy. But at the same time I don’t know if I necessarily want to work with those people either. I’m cool with how all of this has played out.”

He added:

“If I diss someone, it’s a very real thing to me. Like I watch rappers use disses as a gimmick and shit like that, but that ain’t what it is for me.”

Pusha's statements follow West's use of antisemitic language and other harsh words in 2022, which the Virginia rapper described as "very disappointing" in an interview with the Los Angeles Times. Shortly after, he announced his resignation as president of G.O.O.D. Music, the label West created, after 12 years in the position.

The Clipse reunion

The interview comes amid a period of rise in activity for Clipse. After more than a decade of pursuing solo careers, with Pusha focusing on highly acclaimed solo albums and No Malice shifting toward more faith-based work, the pair has reunited for live performances and fresh tracks.

They released “Let God Sort Em Out” on July 11, 2025, marking their fourth album together and the first one since 2009 with help from none other than producer and longtime collaborator Pharrell Williams.

While Pusha T and No Malice are celebrating Clipse's homecoming, the elder brother has not commented on the Kanye West situation, allowing Pusha to answer inquiries about his former colleague.

Pusha T and West have a long history together. As a G.O.O.D. Music signee, he collaborated with Ye on several big projects, including his solo debut, My Name Is My Name, and the 2018 album Daytona, which West produced entirely.

But West's public troubles, especially his antisemitic rants in 2022, reached a breaking point. Pusha believes that the trust and creative synergy that once distinguished their collaboration have been permanently damaged.
