"APEROL SPRITZ" (also known as BACKOUTSIDE) is an unreleased song by ¥$ (Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign). The song features a guest appearance from common Kanye collaborator Ant Clemons and is produced by Digital Nas.[1][2]
Background[]
The song dates back to the Bad Bitch Play Book (Italy) sessions in 2023, where the beat was initially produced by Digital Nas.[2] The song appeared on the fourth known track listing as the eighth track.[3] At this point in time, the song solely featured vocals from Ty Dolla $ign and Ant Clemons. Past that, it's unclear if the song was worked on again throughout the creation of VULTURES 1, given it had not appeared on any other known track listings for the album.
The song had been revived in the creation of VULTURES 2, although its unclear if Ye had ever recorded for the song during these sessions. French Montana would share a snippet of Ty seemingly recording for the song on March 3rd, leading many to believe that he had recorded a feature for it as well, however it was later confirmed French Montana had recorded for VULTURES 2, just not that song.[4]
The song appeared on the first May 3rd track listing shared by Pop and Flab.[5] After the track listing was replaced with another with YE ABOUT MINE and DRUNK, it's unknown if the song had carried over. Past this point, it remains undisclosed if the song was carried into VULTURES 2 post-rework.
