The drama began as Kanye shared several screenshots from an alleged 'abbreviated conversation' with Tremaine to his Instagram account.

The Stronger rapper went on to defend himself in the alleged conversation and remarked that he was a great admirer of the late fashion industry figure and was 'jealous' of what he achieved during his career, even as he lambasted his fashion designs in the same conversation.

Emory was said to have started the conversation and began by criticizing West for his conduct during the final stages of Abloh's life, before he passed away from cardiac angiosarcoma, a rare cancer in November 2021, aged 41.

The rapper expressed that, although he 'hated Virgil's designs,' his former collaborator felt the same way, and that he was never informed with certainty that the designer was battling cancer.

When speaking about the designer's private funeral, he wrote that he 'wanted to grab the mic' and send a message about reconciliation to A$AP Mob members A$AP Rocky and A$AP Bari.

The performer added: 'This past few days have felt like an extension of Virgil's funeral. Virgil played the game perfectly and it still killed him.'

West went on to express that he wanted to apologize to Abloh's family for taking up his time, and he went on to thank Emory for allowing him to express his feelings about the matter.

The rapper then wrote that 'it's hard to find real friends when you're a walking meal ticket,' and remarked that he wanted to discuss the matter further in the future.

He concluded by expressing his views about what constituted 'power' and wrote that 'all the BLM'rs' were 'calling to threaten my life all over again.'

Days earlier, Tremaine accused Kanye of using Virgil's death to distract fans from his recent controversies.

The Grammy winner had written on Instagram: 'Spank my hand with the ruler i’ll go sit in the “principal” office can’t we talk about more important things like how late the show was or how Bernard Arnault killed my best friend everyone’s got a right to an opinion right there’s mine.'

Sharing a screenshot of the post, Tremaine wrote on his own profile: 'Your best friend Virgil, NEGRO PLEASE, this time last year you said Virgil’s designs are a disgrace to the black community infont of all your employees at yeezy – ASK LUCETTE HOLLAND…I GOT ALL THE “RECEIPTS” (don’t let me get into the things you said about v after his death).'

'Ye tell the ppl why you didn’t get invited to Virgil’s actual funeral the one before the public one at the museum. You knew Virgil had terminal cancer and you rode on him in group chats, at yeezy, interviews…YOU ARE SO BROKEN. KEEP VIRGIL NAME OUT YOUR MOUTH…KEEP @gabriellak_j NAME OUT YOUR MOUTH…'

Kanye himself didn't add any further caption to the reposted TikTok video, but earlier Friday via his Instagram, he also called the model a 'Karen' and typed, 'YOU WERE BORN WITH A SILVER SPOON IN YOUR MOUTH YOURE A ZOMBIE.'

Ye and Gigi's ongoing feud was sparked shortly after the rapper's Paris Fashion Show on Monday in which models strutted down the runway wearing White Lives Matter merchandise.

The following day, the fashion designer lashed out at Vogue contributing editor, Gabriella Karefa-Johnson, after she called out his behavior as 'indefensible' and that the merchandise was both 'dangerous and violent.'

Ye also shared a photo of the Vogue writer, writing that she was 'not a fashion person.'

After sharing a text message exchange on his Instagram page in which a person named Mowalola was asking him to 'not insult' the Vogue editor, Gigi jumped to the comments.

The model, who personally has worked with Gabriella in the past, wrote, 'You wish u had a percentage of her intellect. You have no idea haha.' She concluded by calling him both 'a bully' and 'a joke.'

On Wednesday, Kanye responded to Gigi labeling him a 'bully,' and uploaded his response on Instagram.

'I WONDER WHAT GIGI AND VENUS'S PERESPECTIVES WERE WHEN I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE MY CHILD WAS ON HER BIRTHDAY,' he wrote, referencing to drama revolving around daughter, Chicago, and his claims that Kim refused to let him see their child on her fourth birthday.

He then referenced that himself and Gabriella had a discussion in the past regarding the birthday situation. 'Gabby told me that she disagreed with that.'

Gigi then prompted to leap back into the comments to correct the rapper. 'It's Gabriella.'

Khloe also added herself into the feud, defending her sister. 'Ye, I love you. I don't want to do this on social media but YOU keep bringing it here. You are the father of my nieces and nephews and I'm trying to be respectful but please STOP tearing Kimberly down and using our family when you want to deflect.'

Months earlier in September 2021, he dropped a whopping $57.3million on a sprawling beachside home in Malibu in an off-market deal.

The stunning property which looks like a piece of art was designed by Japanese Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando and was built by Marmol Radziner.
