Kanye West is speaking up about his involvement in the Bhad Bhabie/Alabama Barker “beef.”
On Tuesday, the Gucci Flip Flops rapper brought her beef with Travis Barker’s daughter to a boiling point after releasing her diss track Ms. Whitman and accompanying music video, which features a Trav look-alike (whom she unabashedly grinds on throughout). You can ch-ch-check it out (below):
If the track sounds familiar at all, it’s because she sample Kanye’s 2024 song Carnival. Oof… Just insult to injury! Not only is she slinging disses at Bama, but she’s using her step mom Kourtney Kardashian’s ex brother-in-law’s music to do it!

Later in the day, Bhabie took to her Instagram Story to tease a remix, which seemingly included a verse from the disgraced rapper…

Whoa, right?! It’s one thing for him to approve the use of a sample, but it’s a whole other thing to get involved in a feud between a 21 and 19-year-old — the latter of which his niece (of sorts)! But maybe everything is not as it seems…
On Tuesday evening, the antisemitic rapper took to his own Instagram Story to clarify the voice you hear on the Ms. Whitman remix is NOT his… But rather an AI recreation! He explained:
“Y’all, I’m not in the middle of none of this AI beef, people throwing my voice on things, the whole ‘Carnival’ sample.”
He even revealed that he took an extra step to really clear the air… He spoke to Bama’s dad!
“I just talked to Travis Barker, I would never be in the middle. I don’t even know what’s going on. I just got sent a song and asked if I could clear the sample. Only reason why I clear anything is because so many people try to stop me, they stop clearances and everything. It’s been very difficult for me. So, I always, if anybody asks me for something, I always clear it.”
Real good excuse, Ye… We’re not saying he was fully aware of the situation when clearing it, but it’s not like he’s afraid to drum up controversy!
He concluded:
“But I’m not cool with being put in the middle of all this at all. So any verse that be going viral using my voice and all that, it’s like, I didn’t do it.”

X (Twitter) users weren’t exactly in agreement over whether they believe the 47-year-old or not:
“he know damn well he sent that verse”
“This n**** a Nazi but wanna clear up that’s he’s not in a beef priorities are crazy”
“So he didn’t know what the song was about before he cleared it?”
“I believe him. He too busy posting on X and scamming crypto people to be making music these days.”
“he probably did the verse and now kim is making him take it back”
“Alabama told her dad, her dad told Kourtney, Kourtney call Kim, Kim call Ye and now folks we have this video from Kanye”
