Clipse has been back performing together over the last year or so, and No Malice and Pusha T have different visions for how the duo should operate moving forward.

They spoke with their manager Steven Victor in an interview published in GOAT Mag on Monday (Dec. 4). “As far as Hip Hop goes, the highwater mark is always collaborating with JAY-Z, so I would like that,” No Malice said. “Outside of Hip Hop, I would like to see Clipse with artists like Coldplay and The Killers, with big arena records, festivals, something that moves globally.”

King Push had a different take on things, seemingly having no interest in working with anyone. “Man. I don’t know. I’m collab’d out,” he said. “I don’t even care about collaborations if it’s not among a great body of work. I’m into cohesive, great bodies of work. I feel like, in these times, with everybody feeling so fly-by-night, that’s the only thing that’s keeping this genre alive.”

Clipse hasn’t released an album together since 2009’s Til The Casket Drops. They have appeared on a few records together over the years, though. Their official reunion came in 2019 on “Use This Gospel” from Kanye West’s October LP Jesus Is King. They joined forces again in 2022 on “I Pray For You” from Pusha T’s last solo effort It’s Almost Dry.

They debuted a new record, which is still unreleased, at the Louis Vuitton fashion show in Paris back in June. Aside from the excitement of getting more music from the duo, the track also made headlines because Push took shots at Jim Jones.

“Beware of my name, that there’s delegate/ You know I know where you’re delicate/ Crush you to pieces, I’ll hum a breath of it/ I will close your heaven for the hell of it/ You think it’d be valor amongst veterans/ I’m watching your fame escape relevance/ We all in a room but here’s the elephant/ You chasing a feature out of your element,” he rapped.
