Listen "Kanye West - Paid (feat. Ty Dolla Sign & Future)"
Episode Synopsis
"PAID" off "Vultures 1" brings that high-energy, cash-chasing, late-night vibe, blending Kanye’s unpredictable lyricism with Ty Dolla $ign’s effortlessly smooth delivery. The Jodeci sample sets the tone, throwing it back to 90s R&B, while Marshawn Lynch’s iconic "You know why I’m here" drop-in adds that signature Kanye wink at the audience. Lyrically, it’s Kanye at his most braggadocious and bizarre—one moment flexing wealth, the next throwing out cryptic one-liners like "Old stomach is the new ass." What does that even mean? Who cares—it works. Ty Dolla $ign keeps it simple with a hook that’s equal parts laid-back and relentless, embodying the track’s entire ethos: money first, questions later.
