The music video for Ye's song "Eazy" appears to depict an animated version of Ye, previously known as Kanye West, abducting, burying, and growing a rose bush on an animated version of Pete Davidson.

Davidson, an actor and "Saturday Night Life" cast member, is currently dating Kim Kardashian, who filed for divorce from Ye in February 2021.

Also on Wednesday, a judge granted Kardashian's request to be legally single amid her ongoing divorce from Ye. The new status does not finalize their divorce but reinstates her single marital status and maiden name.

In recent months, Ye has issued public pleas for Kardashian to take him back, also calling out Davidson in social-media posts and in the lyrics of "Eazy" itself: In the song, he raps about wanting to "beat Pete Davidson's ass."

The song was originally released as a single on January 16 and also features the rapper The Game.

The new music video, posted on Ye's Instagram account (and reuploaded elsewhere), appears to depict Davidson and names him, using Ye's nickname for the comedian, in on-screen text: "Everyone lived happily ever after / Except ~~Skete~~ You Know Who / JK he's fine."

Representatives for Ye, Kardashian, and Davidson did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.
