Are Taylor Swift’s Tracks ‘thanK you aIMee’ and ‘Cassandra’ About Kim Kardashian?

Swift, 34, surprised fans in the early hours of April 19 after announcing her latest body of work was actually a double album including 15 extra songs. Among them were the tracks “Cassandra” and “thanK you aIMee,” the latter of which notably has the letters K, I, and M capped up in the song’s title.

“thanK you aIMee,” portrays “Aimee” as a school bully figure, with lyrics of the song’s chorus referencing her attacks on Swift.

All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed ‘F— you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushin’/“But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.”

In 2016, Kardashian’s then-husband Kanye West included the lyrics “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why? I made that bitch famous,” in his song “Famous” which he claimed the “Blank Space” singer had approved. Shortly after, Swift, through her representative, denied that she had been made aware of the lyrics, “I made that bitch famous.”

Amid the furor, Kardashian, 43, released edited footage to her Snapchat of an alleged phone call between West and Swift discussing the song — a call that Swift had no idea was being recorded, multiple sources told PEOPLE at the time.

In the bridge for “thanK you aIMee,” Swift suggests that “Aimee” may have “reframed” the damage she caused and hints that she has disguised her true identity in the song.

And maybe you’ve reframed it/And in your mind, you never beat my spirit black and blue/I don’t think you’ve changed much/And so I changed your name, and any real defining clues,” she sings.

Following the song’s release, fans on social media were quick to share their thoughts on who, and what, the song is about, with many directly pointing fingers at Kardashian.

“Taylor swift just made a diss track about kim kardashian in 2024 #TSTTPD,” one fan wrote on X shortly after the double album’s release.
