Ye and Ty Dolla $ign’s Vultures 2 debuted at No. 2 “with 107,000 equivalent album units, marking the 13th Ye album to reach the top two (his entirety of charting releases), while Ty Dolla $ign ups his tally of top 10s to three.”

On West and Ty Dolla $ign’s track with Lil Wayne, “Lifestyle,” the rapper name drops Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.
“Ice up in my veins, old flames tryna melt me / I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce,” Weezy raps.
