Amid 'Bully's Release, Kanye West Makes It Up to Fans With a Quirky Travis Scott Collaboration, Directed by Bianca Censori
Kanye West flirted briefly with chaos before delivering exactly what he promised, only slightly behind schedule. The rapper first unveiled ‘Bully’ through a livestreamed listening party on YouTube at midnight on March 26, only to remove it soon after, leaving fans suspended between excitement and confusion. However, its arrival on YouTube Music on March 27, followed by Apple Music and Spotify the next day, turned that frustration into swift relief.
Kanye West then followed it up with a Travis Scott music video release the very next day, directed by his talented wife.

Kanye West and Travis Scott have reunited for ‘FATHER’, a visually surreal music video that leans heavily into alien and space-like imagery. Directed by Bianca Censori in her official music video debut, the project unfolds like a dream that refuses to settle into logic. Set within a church yet populated by extraterrestrial figures and symbolic chaos, the video feels deliberately disorienting. Censori’s direction gives the collaboration a strange, otherworldly pulse.
While fans may still be waiting for the complete record, ‘FATHER’ offers a concrete glimpse into its sonic and visual world. The video’s surreal tone, complete with a Michael Jackson look-alike and fragmented sequences, suggests an album steeped in experimentation. At the very least, the collaboration provides something tangible amidst the delay.
More importantly, ‘FATHER’ marks yet another reunion between Kanye West and Travis Scott, a duo whose creative chemistry has endured for over a decade. Their past collaborations read like a catalog of calculated disruption, from ‘Champions’ to the unruly sprawl of ‘Watch’, each carrying its own peculiar intensity.
‘FATHER’ is more than a collaboration, it is also an example of the collaborations in 'Bully', an album that is fueling celebratory buzz across Japan.

Don Toliver’s feature on ‘Circles’ builds on the atmospheric success of ‘Moon’, with his Tokyo sessions alongside West shaping the track’s immersive tone. CeeLo Green’s presence on ‘Bully’ reconnects a decades-long association, adding weight and familiarity. Meanwhile, Peso Pluma’s ‘Last Breath’ introduces a striking fusion of ‘corridos tumbados’ and experimental production, expanding the album’s stylistic reach.
In addition to that, André Troutman’s talkbox contributions on ‘All the Love’ and ‘White Lines’ nod to West’s longstanding sonic influences, while James Blake, Quentin Miller, and 88-Keys shape the project behind the scenes. These layered collaborations position ‘Bully’ as both expansive and intentional. Together, they make the Travis Scott-assisted ‘FATHER’ music video feel like a fitting, otherworldly centerpiece.
