The 54-year-old tech entrepreneur got personal with the I Wonder rapper after Ye's Miami show in a new exclusive clip from the upcoming documentary.

Musk first praised Ye's performance, saying, "Wow, yeah, thanks for inviting me, this was an amazing experience. A rare experience. I didn't know what to expect – this was an amazing production."

The scene then flashes to the duo in a space that the Grammy-winning artist called "an idea of a bedroom," where the SpaceX founder dished on his love life.

Kanye's response just made things even more tense.

The All Falls Down hitmaker didn't respond to Musk's question, seemingly taken aback at the sudden change in topic.

To add to the awkwardness, they were both lying on a bed together in the surreal-looking room, gazing up at the ceiling.

"Claire and I – Grimes – we're sort of, you know, in the same text stream," the tech mogul said of his ex-girlfriend and mother of his three kids.

"She's like, 'I love you.' And then, like, you know, a day later, like, 'I hate you,'" the Tesla boss continued.

"And what do you do?" Ye asked Musk.

"Whoa, OK. Yeah, exactly," the billionaire said.

"I don't have answers. Answers to everything except for that," the rapper offered after another awkward silence.

Musk, who split from Grimes in 2021, joins Drake, Pharrell Williams, Marilyn Manson, and more A-listers who will appear in Nico Ballesteros' film, which follows the last six years of Ye's life.

In Whose Name? releases in theaters on September 19.
