On the aptly titled song <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/1RfA60GyVrkHTStCoa2Vcn?si=fdb5b059b6eb417e\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Flash&#8221;<\/a> featuring Chicago rapper Bloodhoud Q50, Gee delivers his point-blank bars over a flip of the soaring &#8220;Flashing Lights&#8221; beat. The price for using part of Ye and producer Eric Hudson&#8217;s beat? $70,000, according to EST Gee, who reveals the cost in <em>XXL<\/em>&#8216;s new series <em>No Filter<\/em>, in which artists\u00a0keep it real about what they&#8217;d say if they were in the room with certain celebrities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ye, why you charged $70,000 for that muhf**kin&#8217; sample I got,&#8221; Gee says. &#8220;You just posted that you\u00a0got $5 billion. I understand. I&#8217;m not the establishment though.&#8221; Don&#8217;t take Gee&#8217;s words like there&#8217;s some beef or something deeper here though. Gee says it all with a smile on his face, and still has nothing but respect for Ye. Some rappers have a mutual understanding with each other that they don&#8217;t charge for features, but with Ye, he&#8217;s putting business first to make a profit.<\/p>\n<p>Crazy costs for samples is nothing new in hip-hop. Two years ago, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2023\/04\/06\/diddy-pays-sting-5000-a-day-for-sampling-his-biggest-hit-song.html\" target=\"_blank\">Diddy confirmed<\/a> that he pays Sting $5,000\u00a0per day for sampling The Police&#8217;s &#8220;Every Breath You Take&#8221; on the 1997 hit &#8220;I\u2019ll Be Missing You,&#8221; a tribute to\u00a0The Notorious B.I.G. That&#8217;s a whole other tax bracket right there.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from Ye, EST Gee also has some words for President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xxlmag.com\/tags\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\">Donald Trump<\/a>. Kodak Black and Lil Wayne received presidential pardons from Trump back in 2021. So Gee wants to look out for some friends who are currently locked up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Donald Trump, for an undisclosed amount of favor, how much undisclosed amount of favor, whatever type of object, would it be to get like 15 federal pardons for inmates already right now convicted,&#8221; Gee asks. &#8220;Let&#8217;s figure it out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gee&#8217;s got a whole lot more to say to actor Tom Cruise regarding a Bobby Shmurda lyric, Lil Baby as a result of addressing people beneath him, former NFL player Michael Vick about a letter Gee wrote to him years ago and more.<\/p>\n<p>Check out
