We know of artists that missed sessions like James Blake way back in the early 2010s which he they wouldn't have another chance for many years

Or artists that worked with him but the sessions went nowhere like Azealia Banks and Spaceghostpurrp etc.

But what about artists that just refused or ignored him?

• I know of one: Kanye tweeted that he had asked Kendrick himself to do work and a feature for Donda 1, but Kendrick never got back to him at the time and essentially ignored him during Donda 1, which is part of the excuses Kanye gave himself for firing on him on Twitter.

I'm sure we'll get stories of this year of people refusing, but before that, are there any others?

He wanted to be on IFHY by Tyler, but Tyler passed bc he couldn’t hear him on it

BONES claimed that Kanye wanted to work together but he said no
