Pusha T Confirms He’s Cut All Ties With Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music

Pusha T has publicly cut ties with Kanye West’s former record label G.O.O.D. Music, which he first joined in 2010, and remained with through the release of his 2022 Grammy-nominated album “It’s Almost Dry.”
In 2015, Pusha became the president of G.O.O.D., but in a new interview with XXL, he confirmed his affiliation with the label was cut following West’s outspoken descent into antisemitism. The company’s parent label, Def Jam, ended its business relationship with G.O.O.D. in late October and clarified that its working relationship with West ended in 2021. Pusha now shares a 50/50 deal directly with Def Jam for his music and is under his own label, Heir Wave Music Group.
The rapper told the publication that he hasn’t spoken to West since he articulated his disappointment with him in a November interview. “I was still on tour. I just expressed myself. I express myself to him a lot. He expressed his thoughts to me,” he said. “And he got off the phone saying, ‘Thank you. I know you don’t agree with me, but you never kill me in the public. And some people can’t wait to do that.'”
When asked about West’s appearances on far-right shows and podcasts, he responded that it was “nothing to tap dance around. It’s wrong. Period. But to me, it’s just me and him having a difference of opinion yet again.”
He continued: “If you ain’t with it, you ain’t down. And I ain’t with it. I’m not budging on that. I’m not with it. I heard about this new stuff [on “Infowars“]. I don’t know. It’s something that just sort of tells me he’s not well, at the same time. I will say that. It’s going to places where it’s no way to move around it.”
He recalled having disagreed with West in 2016 following his public support for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign: “People gotta remember, too. This isn’t new for me, when it comes to disagreeing with him politically and things like that.
“Remember, I’m the one that said the MAGA hat is the new Klu Klux Klan hood while he’s making my album,” he continued. “He beefing with Obama. I met Obama. But it’s the same thing with him and the Drake thing. I’m going through this and that, he’s doing shows [with Drake],” he explained.
Pusha first appeared on West’s “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” album on the track “Runaway.” West then served as an executive producer to Pusha’s solo albums, including releases like 2013’s “My Name is My Name” and 2018’s “Daytona.” The former Clipse rapper’s latest effort, “It’s Almost Dry,” saw West take up half of the record’s production duties, while Pharrell Williams, another longtime collaborator of Pusha’s, produced the other half.
“[West] knows I will do everything I gotta do and wanna do. In regard to anything that jeopardizes my look, my pride, anything. He knows that,” Pusha continued. “He knows there’s no talking me off any ledges. He just can’t do it. With him knowing that. I got too much pride to ask somebody to not move a certain way. I don’t do it. But I’m going to react as Coo Coo Cal as I fucking want to when I feel like something is not going in my favor. It is what it is, man.”

I said it before and I'll say it again, this is a really pussy move by Push and Push is my guy.
Stood by him with the trump shit, stood by him with the slavery is a choice, stood by him when he spoke flagrantly foul on George Floyd, stood by him with the white lives matter BS amongst other things in the past 5 or mor me years.
But the minute Kanye said something about the Jews and all of Kanye's businesses separated from him, now Push has had enough and now it's time for him to distance himself.

Destroy drake . Lmao
Drake had his biggest hit after that wack ass “beef”. I think he's doing just fine
If you judge Drake like how everyone judges Jay Z beefs, Drake won the war which means he's the winner in every beef he's ever been in hands down.
Naw not one battle Jay engaged in was as bad as a defeat drake suffered. Gave us a secret child that was created with a homely cac, drake crying over disrespectful lined and drake in blackface,
i thought he had already cut ties before the jew shitI said it before and I'll say it again, this is a really pussy move by Push and Push is my guy.

If he did he didn't make it public.
Everyone knows that Drake didn't win the Pusha T beef.
Drake lost, licked his wounds and moved on.
Drake wasn't going to fade into oblivion because he lost a rap beef and his fans still supported and continue to support him.
I mean, in the end Push is still on the back burner after that and Drake became more famous lol

That wacky ass ninja, went beyond saying he hate jews. Dude literally said he "loooooooves hitleeeeeeeer" Even that piece of shit Alex jones, Didnt co-sign that bullshit. And All the other right wing nut jobs. They backed away from him too.
He surely wasnt destroyed.
Ja rule was destroyed
Exactly my point
Folks who are fans of his and rap beef will die on that "he made him reveal his child" hill but I believe Drake was going to do that a month or 2 later during his addidas press run.
Otherwise, Push didn't really say anything other than calling Drake a fan and yelling at him lol
he has a kid by a pornstar i could care less
Yall are the worst.
Eminem is the GOAT cause white ppl said he is Jay-Z is the GOAT of rap cause of everything else but rapping
Pusher T and Meek beat Drake to become GOAT status cause I'm a contrarian by nature
Biggie & Pac are the GOAT cause they died at 24/25
Lil Kim is the GOAT because of her poster in the 90s
Some of yall have intriguing opinions. It reminds me of talking to women when they're like:
"Even if something isn't a fact, I feeeeeeeel like it is".

That new track is dope. And Malice being back? That's a problem.
Some serious shots at Jim Jones and Jimmy gonna try all that tough talk but it's not gonna matter. He doesn't have the bars to go back and forth with Push. This sounds like a shot across the bow. Jimmy should sit this one out.
