The artist formerly known as Kanye West is joined by his ‘Vultures’ partner Ty Dolla Sign for
“Gimme a Second 2.”
The artist formerly known as Kanye West laments about being “a king” who’s treated “like a
peasant” in a new song with his and Ty Dolla Sign’s “Carnival” collaborator Rich the Kid.
“Gimme a Second 2,” out Friday, arrives a month after the original “Gimme a Second,” which
featured Peso Pluma. Both songs, as well as the Vultures 1 hit “Carnival,” are set to appear on Rich’s
forthcoming Life’s a Gamble album.
Both Ye and Ty pop up for the third and final verse of “Gimme a Second 2.” In that verse, included below, Ye raps that his oldest child said he’s “not going to Heaven.” From there, he tells listeners he was treated “like a deadbeat” and accused of not being “present.” Later, Ye raps, “They bought my son a new dad.” The 24-time Grammy winner follows that up with an assertion that he doesn’t “give a fuck about shit,” adding, “I’m irreverent.”
In a 2023 episode of Hulu’s The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian, who was married to Ye for seven years, revealed that she had “recently hired a manny” because she “really wanted a male around” for the former couple’s children. Ye was “so nice” to the nanny when meeting him, Kardashian said at the time, though she also said in the same episode that she had initially been “scared out of my mind” to tell her ex-husband about wanting to hire such an employee.
Kardashian welcomed her and Ye’s first child together, North, in 2013. The two also share another daughter together, Chicago, and two sons, Saint and Psalm.Regarding the anticipated follow-up to Vultures 1, the latest update comes from Ty Dolla Sign himself. In a recent Billboard feature, the singer hinted that the delayed release of the sequel, part of a planned trilogy, is expected soon.
