As Big Sean's new album *Better Me Than You* approaches its release, fans are buzzing about his latest single, "Fighting Fires," which features a beat from Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign's track "MY SOUL" off the *VULTURES 2* album. This choice is particularly intriguing given the complex history between Big Sean and Kanye West.
Released exclusively on SoundCloud, "Fighting Fires" showcases Big Sean's lyrical prowess over the instrumental originally used by West and Ty Dolla $ign, though Big Sean’s version takes a more assertive, bar-heavy approach. This track follows another SoundCloud-exclusive, "Dirty Work," which has since been removed from the platform, leaving fans speculating about whether these tracks are part of *Better Me Than You* or simply standalone releases.
Big Sean had hinted at a potential collaboration with Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign for the *VULTURES* project, but it seems those plans didn't materialize, leading to separate versions of the track. Despite past tensions, including rumors of West's involvement in the leak of Sean's album earlier this year, Sean has remained supportive of his former mentor.
In addition to Kanye West, Big Sean has faced scrutiny from some Baby Keem fans who believe his style resembles Keem's. However, Sean has dismissed these claims and remains focused on his new album, which promises to explore themes of personal growth and resilience.
With *Better Me Than You* set to release soon, fans are eager to see how Big Sean’s recent experiences and inspirations shape the final product.
