After nearly ten years away from hip-hop, Kylie Jenner just returned to the spotlight! This time, he teamed up with Yeat, one of rap’s hottest names, for his new song ‘Let King Tonka Talk’. The surprise collaboration has people on edge: is this just a fun cameo, or is Kylie really making a comeback in music, and perhaps looking for a new chapter in Hollywood?
Kylie Jenner’s Unexpected Rap Comeback: What Happened?
On 20 March 2026, Yeats released ‘Let King Tonka Talk’, a wild single from his upcoming album. Out of nowhere, there’s Kylie Jenner, spitting a couple of lines under her old moniker ‘King Kylie’. It’s his first rap appearance since 2016 when he appeared on Burberry Perry’s ‘Beautiful Day’ alongside Lil Yachty and friends. Now, at 28, he’s back, his voice sliding around the 55-second mark. “Let King Kylie do the talking,” he declares, lowering his voice to a whisper: “They never could.“That’s right. Just ten seconds, but bold and deliberate.For those who don’t know, the song is a Yeat classic, but Kylie’s cameo stole the conversation. It’s short, but it has something. Almost dusting off that ‘King Kylie’ persona that fueled her early fame, wild fashion and carefree energy. The lyrics also spawn a little inside joke: Yeat raps about mistaking a woman for Jenner with a new BBL, and then Kylie jumps in. Blink and you’ll miss it, but it’s officially listed as a feature and even has songwriting credits.
“King Kylie”: Kylie Jenner’s “musical past”
If you thought lip kits were Kylie Jenner’s only jam, think again. Her ‘King Kylie’ era, from 2014 to 2016, was all about breaking the rules, trying wild looks and building her brand. His first taste of rap came in 2016 with ‘Beautiful Day’, and while it seemed silly at the time, his followers kept guessing what he was going to do next. According to Entertainment Weekly, rumors of secret music projects and further collaborations with Terror Jr never really died down. That time was terrible for him. She launched Kylie Lip Kits, and eventually became a millionaire with Kylie Cosmetics.Lately, that atmosphere has been returning, slowly but steadily. In 2025, she dropped a ‘King Kylie Collection’ for her makeup line and also dabbled in music once again, collaborating with Terror Jr for the electro-pop song ‘Fourth Strike’. Now, jumping onto a Yeat track feels like the next step, and this time, he’s leaning more into hip-hop.
