The topic went viral on Thursday (Jun 26, 2026): while talking to his audience, Jon Vlogs revealed he had tried to broker a collab between Veigh and Kanye West — and that the American rapper would have agreed to record without a fee.
The statement came during the streamer's broadcast and quickly turned into clips across social media, including on Trapground's X profile.
What Jon Vlogs said
According to the influencer, negotiations were underway when the idea ultimately fell through. Jon explained the main obstacle would have been Kanye West's reputation in Brazil, citing the controversies surrounding the artist in recent years.
"I was closing a Veigh feat with Kanye. Can you imagine? But Kanye is poorly seen in Brazil, you know? Because of the stuff he did... That he's crazy. So it didn't really work out, because... It's tough to associate the image, you know? But I was working on the feat. He wasn't going to charge. It was going to be about making music."
Jon stressed that Kanye would not charge for the feature — the collab would be done "to make music," with no money involved in the deal.
Why the collab didn't happen
From the streamer's account, the deadlock was not artistic or financial, but strategic: linking Veigh to Kanye's image in the current Brazilian market would have been a reputational risk.
Kanye West has accumulated public controversies for years — from polarizing statements to episodes that directly affected how he is received outside the United States. In Brazil, that history weighs especially heavy on high-impact collaborations with mass-market pop artists like Veigh.

For now, there is no official confirmation that Veigh or Kanye West were directly involved in the talks — the account comes exclusively from Jon Vlogs. Still, the story reignites the debate over which international partnerships make sense for Brazilian rap when a foreign artist's public image is under scrutiny.
