Twista says he never had a problem with Kanye West

Chicago-based rapper Twista will release his new album, The Day After, on October 4th. The set will feature the production of the Neptunes, Scott Storch, Toxic, David Banner, and Kanye West. The first single from the project is the Neptunes-produced "Lavish."

Twista and Kanye West collaborated for one of the biggest hits of 2004, "Slow Jamz," but shortly after the song erupted, rumors began to surface that the pair were on the outs. Twista explained that he never had a problem with West. The rapper explained: "You know, little, little, crazy little incidents I think maybe with people that was around trying to get close to him, or people that's around trying to get close to me. Trying to stir things up, you know what I'm sayin', to an extent, but it never really could get like that because of the type of person Kanye is and the type of person I am."


Twista added: "I look at the picture to the extent where it's like we did what we did, it's so big to me that he could actually come out fool to a certain extent or something. I still wouldn't let that make me overstep any kind of boundaries to put any kind of stain on our movement or what we put down. I'll pull him to the side first."
