Clipse Dish On The Neptunes Breakup: 'Whenever We See Each Other, It's Always Still Love'
The Clipse and The Neptunes made magic together, but sadly, that can no longer happen. The Virginia rap duo recently shared their feelings on the production duo's breakup and the relationship between the two collectives. 'Absolutely miss Chad. As far as, you know, being on the album,' Malice said during their appearance on Popcast. 'But I'll see Chad in the airport, in the street, at Buffalo Wild Wings, you know, in VA. Whatever they got going on, just hope for the best for that […] Whenever we see each other, it's always still love. Always.' Pusha T chimed in, saying that despite Chad Hugo missing from the fold, the work continues. 'Everybody knows my favorite album is Hell Hath No Fury. Pharrell did that alone. That's it,' he stated. 'Chad's my guy. I love Chad. Pharrell's my guy, love Chad, too. We're brothers, we came up together. But, you know, when you say missing in the music, there is no missing in the music when it comes to the Clipse. And if it's just P, it don't matter—we find what we find.' The Hip-Hop world wept when they learned that Pharrell and Hugo were no longer on speaking terms due to a legal battle over ownership of The Neptunes' name and trademarks, as they initially had an agreement to split everything evenly. Skateboard P wished his former partner-in-crime all the best in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. 'I'm very grateful for our time together,' he said. The legendary producer is handling Clipse's upcoming album, Let God Sort Em Out, all on his own, and so far they have shared the singles 'Ace Trumpets' and 'So Be It.' The latter song was incendiary, as Push targeted Travis Scott. He added more context to his diss in an interview with GQ, recalling how the Houston artist interrupted one of their recording sessions in Paris to play his 2023 album Utopia. Push went on to say that Scott withheld playing Drake's verse on 'Meltdown,' where he dissed both the Daytona artist and Pharrell. Listen to 'Meltdown' below.

Clipse Unleash Sumptuous 'So Be It' Music Video Dissing Travis Scott
Clipse has continued the rollout for their anticipated Let God Sort Em Out album with a brand new music video. On Tuesday (June 17), the duo unleashed 'So Be It,' a stinging track accompanied by a lavish music video. Directed by Hannan Hussain, the black-and-white visual stuns with luxury vehicles, jewelry, and more, as the brothers welcome smoke from all corners. In the third verse, Pusha T takes direct shots at Travis Scott. 'You cried in front of me, you died in front of me/Calabasas took your b*tch and your pride in front of me/Heard Utopia had moved right up the street/And her lip gloss was poppin', she ain't need you to eat/The 'net gon' call it the way that they see it/But I got the video, I can share and A.E. it/They wouldn't believe it, but I can't unsee it/Lucky I ain't TMZ it, so be it, so be it.' In a conversation with GQ, the Virginia-bred lyricist explained his disdain for the Houston rager and linked it back to his 'Meltdown' collaboration with Drake. In the song, the Canadian chart-topper exclaimed he'd 'melt down the chains that I bought from your boss, give a f**k about all of that heritage sh*t,' referencing Neptunes-era jewlery Drake purchased at auction. 'The true context of that is we were in Paris, literally working, and he was calling to play P his new album. He came to [Pharrell's] studio [at Louis Vuitton HQ, where Clipse recorded most of Let God Sort Em Out]. He interrupted a session,' Pusha detailed. 'He sees me and Malice] there. He's like, 'Oh, man, everybody's here,' he's smiling, laughing, jumping around, doing his f**king monkey dance. We weren't into the music, but he wanted to play it, wanted to film [us and Pharrell listening to it]. And then a week later you hear 'Meltdown,' which he didn't play. He played the song, but not [Drake's verse].' He continued, 'So, that's where my issue comes in—like, dawg, don't even come over here with that, because at the end of the day, I don't play how y'all play. To me, that really was just like…he's a wh*re. He's a wh*re,' as he described Scott's lack of 'loyalty' to Kanye West. 'So Be It' is the second single from the first album recorded by the brothers in 16 years. It was preceded by the track 'Ace Trumpets' with both being produced by Pharrell Williams. As a frequent collaborator with the group, the 52-year-old produced the entire album. Let God Sort Em Out is officially due on July 11, 2025, from Roc Nation. Along with the album, Clipse is set to embark on a national tour. Watch 'So Be It' above and check out the full Let God Sort Em Out tour schedule below.

Travis Scott subtly addresses Pusha T diss on Jackboys 2 amid Clipse album release weekend
Jackboys 2, the long-awaited Cactus Jack compilation led by Travis Scott, is now out, featuring Don Toliver, Sheck Wes, and SoFaygo. The release comes amid rising tension between Scott and rapper Pusha T, who recently criticized Travis on the new Clipse track 'So Be It.' Pusha, in a GQ interview, criticized Travis for flaunting his alliance with Pharrell during the Utopia rollout, only to feature Drake on the same album—where Drake delivered a verse dissing Pharrell and Clipse. Pusha didn't hold back, calling Travis 'a whore' with no loyalty or moral standard. While Scott had previously remained silent, the new project seems to offer a subtle response. The opening track, 'Champain & Vacay,' features Don Toliver and ad-libs from Waka Flocka Flame. Toward the end of his verse, Scott raps: 'Man these old n-ggas kill me/Know my YNs feel me… Blue Bugatti, dodgin TMZ/Made a hundred off of pushin tees/Now my phone on DND.' The wordplay alludes to Pusha's name while portraying him as an aging critic. The 'dodgin TMZ' lyric appears to reference a line from 'So Be It,' where Pusha warns Travis he's lucky he didn't 'TMZ it'—hinting at a potentially damaging video. The album opens with narration from Bun B and spans 17 tracks. No other lyrics directly mention Pusha, Clipse, or Pharrell, indicating Travis may be shrugging off the feud. Observers also noted that Scott announced the album just two days before release—timed to coincide with Clipse's long-planned Let God Sort Em Out, possibly setting up a streaming showdown. Ahead of the release, Pusha and his brother Malice addressed the timing in a Breakfast Club interview, encouraging fans to compare both records. Jackboys 2 also features appearances from Future, Playboi Carti, 21 Savage, GloRilla, Kodak Black, Tyla, and Vybz Kartel.

Pusha T Reveals Why He Dissed Travis Scott On New Clipse Single 'So Be It'
Any new Pusha T music released since 2018 has had people constantly wondering who may get dissed. Travis Scott was his latest target on the new Clipse single 'So Be It,' and the Virginia rapper explained why. 'You cried in front of me, you died in front of me/ Calabasas took your bi**h and your pride in front of me/ Heard Utopia had moved right up the street/ And her lip gloss was poppin', she ain't need you to eat/ The 'net gon' call it the way that they see it/ But I got the video, I can share and A.E. it/ They wouldn't believe it, but I can't unsee it/ Lucky I ain't TMZ it, so be it, so be it,' Push rapped on the Tuesday (June 17) release. These lines refer to the Houston rapper's 2023 LP Utopia, his ex-girlfriend Kylie Jenner, and Alexander 'A.E.' Edwards, best friend to Jenner's ex-boyfriend Tyga. But why is the 48-year-old rapper shooting at Travis, and why is now the right time? 'The true context of that is we were in Paris, literally working, and he was calling to play [Pharrell] his new album,' Push told GQ. 'He came to [Pharrell's] studio [at Louis Vuitton HQ, where Clipse recorded most of [Let God Sort Em Out]. He interrupted a session.' Pusha T indicated that Travis Scott didn't seem to care about what he was intruding on, and was more focused on playing his music. 'He sees me and Malice there. He's like, 'Oh, man, everybody's here,'' he recalled. 'He's smiling, laughing, jumping around, doing his f**king monkey dance. We weren't into the music, but he wanted to play it, wanted to film [us and Pharrell listening to it].' The biggest issue was what the 10-time Grammy nominee didn't play for them. 'And then a week later you hear 'Meltdown,'' Push added. 'He played the song, but not [Drake's verse].' That track was where the 6 God infamously threatened to melt down the Neptunes-era jewelry that he bought from Pharrell's Joopiter auction. Even worse, Skateboard P contributed to that album, which made it another instance where Scott played the fence while his enemies went at one another. The Daytona artist admitted that he didn't hold Scott to 'any standard' because he had done this before, such as placing Drake's Ye-targeted verse on 'Sicko Mode' in 2018, or even last year when he encouraged Future and Metro Boomin to play the full version of 'Like That' at Rolling Loud. 'He don't have no picks, no loyalty to nobody,' Push stated. 'He'll jump around whatever he feels is hot or cling onto whatever he feels is hot. But you can play those games with those people…We're not in your mix. Keep your mix over there.' Pusha T straight up called Travis Scott a 'whore' and was especially bothered because he had intentionally distanced himself from Ye and Scott's crew a long time ago. 'It's the principle of what I'm saying,' he said. 'That filthy quality that they have about themselves, that lack of loyalty. Travis really has that. He's proven. I just named three people that he does that type of behavior with. I'm just not one of them. Dog, I ain't with that. This sh*t ain't coming out of nowhere.' It will be interesting to hear who else gets Push's vitriol when Let God Sort Em Out finally comes out on July 11.

Music's Best Moments at Paris Fashion Week SS26
WithParis FashionWeekwrappedfor the season, we're looking back at some of our favorite music moments from the past over the streets of Paris to premiere newPharrell-designedLouis Vuittonpieces and new tracks from their upcomingLet God Sort Em Outalbum, whileTommy RichmanandRoddy Ricchboth made their runway soundtrack curation debuts for424andNamesake, respectively, among a handful of other notable live performances. Pusha TandMaliceturned the streets of Paris into their playground, popping up throughout the city during the course of the week. A likely link-up that holds strong with each season, Clipse paired up with Pharrell – the producer of the entirety ofLet God Sort Em Out– for the LV show, the duo's 'So Be It' part of the runway soundtrack. Before the show, Pusha served as the face of the brand's new collection, debuting a few new pieces on socials. Once he and Malice got to Paris, they performed an intimate show on the rooftop of the LV headquarters (where they recorded the entire album) – which included a live debut of the album's 'Chains and Whips' featuring Kendrick Lamar. The duo debuted a new edition of the adidas Adistar Jellyfish sneakers as well. Pharrell's soundtracks never disappoint. Included in LV's runway playlist this season was a new song fromTyler, the CreatorandDoechii. Produced by Pharrell, the track is entitled 'Get Right' and has not been officially released on streaming services yet. 'Get Right' marks Tyler and Doechii's second studio collaboration afterCHROMAKOPIA's'Balloon.' Similarly,A$AP Rocky, too, knows how to host a music-infused fashion spectacle, doing just that once again for AWGE's second show in Paris. The homage to Harlem included aPUMAcollaboration, a front row appearance fromRihannaand Riot, and an immersive collection of backing tracks. Models strutted to a handful of new A$AP Rocky tracks, previewed from the rapper's (hopefully) forthcomingDON'T BE DUMBalbum. Two of the three new tracks feature Thoto. Making his debut as a runway music curator isTommy Richman. Ascending to global fame after 'MILLION DOLLAR BABY,' Richman's rise has been rapid, so it makes sense for him to find himself involved in a Paris runway so early in his career. Richman set the soundscape for the 424 show with a curation of synth, SoundCloud-type beats. An appearance from none other thanYung Leanis guaranteed to make any 'Best Moments' roundup. Leandoer himself showed up for theY-3runway, donning a full monochromatic Y-3 tracksuit. Fashion Week royalty, Rocky and Riri, ruled the streets of Paris this season once again. Nothing else needed to be said. If there's one thing we can count on every season, it'sDominic Fikesitting front row at Saint Laurent, in head-to-toe Saint Laurent. This season was no exception, the musician, in a brown suit, making his routine appearance to the FROW forAnthony Vaccarello's SS26 showcase. AMIRIalso had a pretty impressive selection of front row guests. Musicians includingJ Balvin,Ryan Castro,French Montanaand2 Chainzco-mingled alongside a lineup of other A-list actors, actresses, and athletes. But if we're speaking of front rows, if we had to hand it to just one, it would have to be Louis Vuitton. In addition to the ever-so-regalBeyoncéandJay-Z,Jackson Wang,J-Hope,Karol G, Uncle Waffles, and, of course, Clipse, were among this season's front-row viewers. Many designers brought out live instrumentalists this percussionist and strings duo Valentina Magaletti and Zongamin playing live as the collection showed, whileWales Bonnersimilarly had Dutch cellist Ranie Ribeiro score the Yamamoto's SS26 showcase was backed by a live choir covering classics, andÉtudes Studioembraced an eclectic live assortment of percussion, drums, and bells scattered throughout the room. Day one friends and collaborators,Hiroshi Fujiwarateamed up withNIGO(andFutura) for this season'sKENZOshow to soundtrack the runway. 424 was another face-paced fusion of fashion and music, with bothRemaand Roddy Ricch making their runway debuts during the show. Though they didn't walk the runway this season, they walked the Parisian streets – arguably even more important.2hollisshowed out to shows including Louis Vuitton and Rick Owens whileASAP Nasthosted a listening event in between appearing at AWGE, among others.
