Tyler, The Creator heard the new Kanye West & Andre 3000 Leaked song.
Last night, Drake played some new and unreleased songs of “Certified Lover Boy” on Sound 42 Radio, and the mix also featured a Kanye West & Andre 3000 Collaboration called “Life of the Party.” The track was supposed to appear on Kanye West’s latest album “DONDA” but didn’t make the final cut. The song had been shared all over social media, and it looks like, Tyler, The Creator heard it as well. He reacted to the song through some posts on his Twitter.
“Man, I heard Life of the Party a few months back and lost my mind,” Tyler tweeted. I want to devour the music because it’s so wonderful. The evolution is extremely Anita Baker-esque. The original verse was heartfelt and sincere. pretty.” Tyler also reacted to Twitter when Drake originally leaked the tune, saying “sir 3000*” with a love emoji, likely honouring André 3000. André also hinted in his statement that he would like to collaborate with Drake and that he still aspires to do so. It remains to be seen if the two will collaborate in the future.
“Straight from shibuya,” wrote Tyler, referencing Kanye’s lyrics on the song. “hey keep rollin,” he tweeted for Andre 3000 while showing him lover in another tweet. “Sir 3000*” he wrote with a heart emoji.

Andre 3000 also issued a statement regarding the whole situation and called it “unfortunate.” “A few weeks ago Kanye reached out about me being a part of the Donda album,” says Andre. “I was inspired by his idea to make a musical tribute to his mom. It felt appropriate to me to support the Donda concept by referencing my own mother, who passed away in 2013. We both share that loss. I thought it was a beautiful choice to make a clean album but, unfortunately, I didn’t know that was the plan before I wrote and recorded my verse. It was clear to me that an edited ‘clean’ format of the verse would not work without having the raw, original also available. So, sadly, I had to be omitted from the original album release.”
The single, which Yeezy teased earlier this week during his trip to Berlin, appears to incorporate bars regarding the enigmatic group text that had fans talking weeks ago, with Yeezy rapping, “I put Virgil and Drake on the same text, and it wasn’t about the matching Arc’teryx or Kid Cudi dress/Just told these grown men stop it with the funny shit.” Shortly after he adds: “Thought we was the new Abu Dhabi/Told Drake don’t play with me on GD and he sent that message to everybody/So if I hit you with a ‘WYD,’ you better hit me with, ‘Yessir, I’m writing everything you need.’” There’s also an unfortunate “where’s my motherf**kin’ red hat?”
Andre 3000 continues, “The track I received and wrote to didn’t have the diss verse on it and we were hoping to make a more focused offering for the Donda album but I guess things happen like they are supposed to. It’s unfortunate that it was released in this way and two artists that I love are going back and forth. I wanted to be on Certified Lover Boy too. I just want to work with people that inspire me. Hopefully I can work with Kendrick on his album. I’d love to work with Lil’ Baby, Tyler and Jay-Z. I respect them all.”
