As Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign near the release of their debut joint album “Vultures”, the rappers have joined forces with marquee record producer and singer James Blake and West’s daughter North West on a new flagrant single “Talking/Once Again”.
The single, which serves as the follow-up to ¥$‘s fiery lead single “Vultures” featuring Lil Durk and J Bump, arrives alongside a massive visual cut directed by D’Innocenzo Brothers with further cinematography by Matteo Cocco and features the father-daughter duo and a personal verse by Dolla $ign.
“I don’t know how I’m gonna tell her, but her dad’s just afraid/Of her choices, know that I’ve been through it/ I just hope I haven’t been the wrong influence,” Dolla $ign sings. “That’s why I gotta break the curses that were set for me/This is hard work working, this ain’t destiny/My motivation is just looking at my family tree.“
Notably, the single arrives just ahead of the three “Vultures” volumes titled “Volume 1”, “Volume 2” and “Volume 3” which are set to release on February 9th, March 8th and April 5th respectively.

Reportedly, West & Dolla $ign’s forthcoming LP is set to feature guest verses by numerous rap heavyweights including Young Thug, Future, Playboi Carti, Migos’ affiliate Quavo, Latin rap superstar Bad Bunny and R&B pioneer Chris Brown. While this is a confirmed set of features on “Vultures”, Rihanna and Nicki Minaj are rumoured to feature on the album too.
West has further revealed his plans for a worldwide “Vultures” tour despite various top-tier stadiums and arenas refusing to let him perform due to controversial statements in the past.
“We just sold out the United Center in seven minutes… It’s the only arena that I had access to in the past year. And when I call, people say there’s no [availabilities] for me, and you know why that is. So if there’s anybody out there that can help with this, please do,” West wrote on Instagram expressing his concerns about the troubled situation.
Look out for “Vultures” by Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign this Friday.
