Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, Rich the Kid, and Playboi Carti are currently enjoying the media attention surrounding their names as their collaboration for Vultures 1, Carnival, has ranked No. 1 on Billboard Top 10.

Yesterday (Mar. 13) news broke that Ye and Ty (popularly known as ¥$) would be executive producing Rich the Kid's new album, which will be the follow-up project to his 2020 project Boss Man. He has reposted several accounts and portals that posted about the update.

In a now-deleted Instagram post, Rich was seen celebrating the No. 1 achievement as well as stating:
