James Blake Pulls Production Credit from Kanye's Bully

0:00On March 30, James Blake is pulling his production credit from the final track on Kanye West's new album, Bully, called This One Here. He helped build it from Kanye's freestyle back in 2022, but says the finished version strays too far from his original vibe. Blake made this clear in a recent social media post, stressing he does not want credit for work that is not truly his. He broke it down like this. His vocal pitches and track structure got mixed with fresh takes, leaving little of his core sound intact. Blake is cool with fans enjoying it, but he drew a line on claiming someone else's effort. Importantly, this move has zero ties to Kanye's endless headlines, purely a creative call. Their history goes back years, with shout outs and studio sessions in the mid-2000s teens that never fully dropped. Kanye was slated for Blake's 2016 album track, Timeless, but it fell through. They linked up more recently on Vultures, one with Thai dollar sign, where Blake produced, talking, slash once again.

1:01No word yet from Kanye's camp on the request. Meanwhile, Kanye dropped Bully last Friday, March 28, his first solo joint since Donda too in 2022. Blake stays moving too, fresh off his own solo drop, Trying Times. Shows how producers guard their craft in this collab heavy game, keeping it real no matter the name attached.
