Kanye West, 44, didn’t hold back about Kim Kardashian, 41, and Pete Davidson, 28, in Fivio Foreign‘s new rap song “City of God,” which features Ye and Alicia Keys. Kanye took shots at his ex-wife’s relationship with the Saturday Night Live star on the track, amidst turmoil between the famous exes who share four children. “This afternoon, a hundred goons pullin’ up to SNL / When I pull up, it’s dead on arrival / They act like they love me, they don’t even like you,” Ye sings.The “Gold Digger” rapper also mentioned his daughter Chicago‘s 4th birthday party which, according to Kanye, Kim did not invite him to. “They threw a party, won’t even invite you / You black and you rich, they sayin’ you psycho, it’s like a cycle / If you text me anything hype you better text back and say it’s a typo.”Kanye dissed Kim and Pete’s blossoming relationship another time on the track. “And if I let ’em have my wife, n***as should thank me / With this Balenciaga and Balenci’ boots and a new blue Yankee,” he sings.

Guy Lodge Film CriticFor many of us, the first mental image prompted by the name Karen Blixen is of a radiant Meryl Streep, resplendent in oatmeal linen and undulating safari hat, romantically lit in the tawny Kenyan dusk. If you wish that to remain the case, best to steer clear of “The Pact” — not that Bille August’s flat, unflattering portrait of the older Blixen should be appointment viewing for anyone.
