Clipse debuted a new song at Pharrell‘s Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer Men’s Collection fashion show for a second year in a row, and this one includes assistance from John Legend.
Premiering at the 2025 show on Tuesday (June 18), Pusha T and No Malice‘s track, the title of which has not yet been revealed, pays homage to their deceased parents.

The first verse finds Pusha remembering their mother Mildred Thornton, who passed in November 2021.
“Lost in emotion, mama’s youngest/ Tryna navigate life without my compass/ Some experience death and feel numbness/ But not me, I felt it all and couldn’t function,” he raps.

On the next verse, No Malice comes in to pay respects to their father Gene Elliott Thornton Sr., who passed just months after their mother, in March 2022.
In a statement to Billboard, Pusha’s team wouldn’t confirm much information about the song but they did say: “No details to share right now, other than that it is indeed new Clipse that played during the show.”

You can see the song below, with the piano beginning at about the five-minute mark and the raps beginning at 7:34.
At least year’s Louis Vuitton show, Clipse also debuted a song as they walked the runway – and this one caused quite a stir.
On the track, Pusha T appears to take shots at Jim Jones following his shade earlier that year.
“Beware of my name, that there’s delegate/ You know I know where you’re delicate/ Crush you to pieces, I’ll hum a breath of it/ I will close your heaven for the hell of it/ You think it’d be valor amongst veterans/ I’m watching your fame escape relevance/ We all in a room but here’s the elephant/ You chasing a feature out of your element,” Pusha raps, seemingly accusing Jones of cuddling up to his nemesis Drake in order to get a guest verse.

He continues: “And those lab diamonds under inspection/ The question marks block your blessings/ It’s no tombstones in the desert/ I know by now you get the message.”
Various big-name celebrities were also in attendance, with JAY-Z and Beyoncé nodding their heads in the front row. Check out the track below.
Shortly after, Jim Jones appeared to respond by posting a video of himself laughing on Instagram while referencing Pusha T’s My Name Is My Name album in the caption.
“Let me know if they serious cause my name is my name #Capo,” he wrote.

He added on his Instagram Stories: “Let me know when they really ready.”
The apparent friction between the two likely started when Jim Jones questioned Pusha T’s position at No. 29 on Billboard‘s Top 50 Greatest Rapper of All Time list last April.
