Ye, formerly known as rap star, Kanye West has become a topic of discussion over the last several months. Ironically, none of it has had to do with music. The Yeezy founder has gone on several hellacious social media rants. And during those rants, he has aimed at some of the top celebs in the entertainment industry. One of the people who he has targeted was rap star Travis Scott.

But even amid his recent criticism, Travis says he has no ill will toward the Grammy-winning artist.
“That’s my kids’ uncle,” he said of Kanye in a new interview with Complex. “That guy took me in when I was young when I was like 19. He taught me a lot about music. And not even just ‘taught’ me, but he allowed me to experience the creation of music. To create music with him, it’s what helped me grow, making a lot of beats. Whether it’s writing and collapsing on music and film or clothes or whatever the fuck it is, just constantly learning.”
Kanye’s criticism toward the Astroworld creator stems from a February incident, where one fan revealed that Travis had unfollowed Ye on social media. Upon the revelation, he had an interesting response.
“I LOVE TRAV VIRGIL AND DRAKE DRAKE THE REALEST ONE OF THOSE THREE THOUGH HE NOT FAKE COOL HE’S JUST TALENTED AF,” he said
“AND YES IT F**K VIRGIL AND ANY OF THESE OTHER N****S THAT WORKED FOR ME THEN USED ME THEN WENT AGAINST ME I LOVE VIRGIL AND HE USED THAT VERY LOVE TO BEAT NIGERIANS ARE SUPER SMART.”
Travis and Kanye’s ties go beyond the music industry. Travis shares two children, Stormi and Aire, with Kylie Jenner, who is Kim Kardashian’s sister. Kardashian and West were previously married and share three children, North, Saint, and Chicago.
