Almost a year ago to the day, Pusha T released his critically acclaimed Daytona album that was exclusively produced by Kanye West, who also showcased his "whoopty-woop" bars on his only featured verse.
Months prior, J. Cole had released the miscellaneous single "False Prophets" that appeared to directly question Kanye's integrity, as it's now been revealed that Kanye responded to Cole on the OG version of "What Would Meek Do" with Pusha T.
In the snippet that was released late Wednesday (May 29) on the Kanye's Archive YouTube channel that has since been deleted, Kanye can be heard rhyming: "I am the Don of Vuitton/I am the Sean of Sean John/That's the boss, n****/I'm too complex for ComplexCon/You heard Cole on that song he was tryna hate" before the audio fades.
With that said, the final version of the record on Daytona has no mention of Cole, while there hasn't been any confirmation as to how the song leaked or if the two artists ever reached an understanding.
Meanwhile, as Kanye has recently expressed to David Letterman that outside opinions only makes his mental illness worse, it seems likely that he didn't appreciate Cole's constructive criticism on "False Prophets" as well.
