Kanye West reacts to Bhad Bhabie’s Alabama Barker diss track, clarifies truth about his feature on alleged remix
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has publicly denied recording a verse for Bhad Bhabie’s diss track aimed at Alabama Barker, confirming that the viral clip featuring his voice was AI-generated.
The rapper took to Instagram to address the controversy, distancing himself from the ongoing feud between Bhabie and Barker.
“I’m not in the middle of none of this AI beef,” Ye stated. “People throwing my voice on things—the whole ‘Carnival’ sample. I just talked to Travis Barker. I would never be in the middle. I don’t even know what’s going on.”
The controversy began after Bhabie released a track titled “Ms. Whitman,” which samples Ye and Ty Dolla Sign’s song “Carnival” and takes direct shots at Barker. In the diss, Bhabie accuses Barker of attempting to get with her baby daddy, Le Vaughn, and fuels speculation about Barker allegedly being pregnant by Tyga.
After the song's release, Bhabie teased a remix on Instagram Live which featured verse in Ye's voice.

While Ye confirmed that he approved the sample, he emphasized that it was not intended as a slight toward Alabama.
“I just got sent a song and asked if I could clear the sample. The only reason I clear anything is because so many people try to stop me. Everything has been very difficult for me. So, anybody asks me for something, I always clear it,” he explained. “I’m not cool with being put in the middle of all this at all.”
Despite the growing online reaction, Bhad Bhabie has yet to respond to accusations of using an AI-generated Ye verse in her song.
