The Clipse have come with loaded clips and they are not backing down. In the latest release by rappers Pusha T and No Malice as a duo, the song became a sword pointed at Travis Scott. Speaking to GQ about the song, this is what Pusha had to say:
“We were in Paris, literally working, and he was calling to play P his new album. He came to [Pharrell’s] studio [at Louis Vuitton HQ, where Clipse recorded most of Let God Sort Em Out]. He interrupted a session. He sees me and [Malice] there. He’s like, ‘Oh, man, everybody’s here,’ he’s smiling, laughing, jumping around, doing his fucking monkey dance. We weren’t into the music, but he wanted to play it, wanted to film [us and Pharrell listening to it]. And then a week later you hear ‘Meltdown,’ which he didn’t play. He played the song, but not [Drake’s verse].”
While Pusha never name dropped Travis, the usage of words like ‘Utopia’ and reference to ‘lipgloss’ girlfriend subliminally indicates that the words were pointed at none other than Travis Scott.
In the interview, Pusha also revealed that what never sat right with him was also the fact that Utopia featured production and vocals from Pharrell, who was then permitted to be disrespected. Well, perhaps a response is on the way — stay tuned!
