Kanye West Drops Taylor Swift’s Name Again In New Song… Eight Years After Explicit Famous Lyric That Spawned His And Ex-wife Kim Kardashian’s Bitter Feud With Pop Megastar That ‘took Her Down Psychologically’

Kanye West dropped Taylor Swift‘s name again in a new song during his Vultures listening experience in NYC on Friday in support of the album’s release with Ty Dolla Sign.

The controversial rapper, 46 — who was recently blasted by Ozzy Osbourne over the unauthorized use of War Pigs sample — previously mentioned the Love Story songstress in his 2016 track titled Famous.

He had rapped: ‘For all my South Side n****s that know me best/ I feel like me and Taylor might still have 𝑠e𝑥/ Why? I made that b***h famous.’

In his latest song Carnival, Swift’s name stands out among a list of controversial figures — including accused rapist Bill Cosby and tech billionaire Elon Musk — who’ve made it into the lyrics.

‘Now I’m Ye Kelly, b***h / Now I’m Bill Cosby, b***h / Now I’m Puff Daddy rich / That’s Me Too rich,’ raps Kanye, as per Forbes.

‘I mean since Taylor Swift, since I had a Rollie on the wrist / I’m the new Jesus, b***h / I turned water into Kris / This for what they did to Chris / They can’t do s**t with this

Social media users took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to comment on the performer dropping the Grammy winner’s name in the new album – after Swift said his past lyric ‘took her down psychologically.’

One wrote, ‘one today’s episode of ‘controversy,’ kanye mentions taylor in his new album…!’

Another penned, ‘Here he comes Kanye mentioning taylor swift,’ while one typed, ‘need to see kanye & taylor swift fans go at it on the TL.’

Eight years earlier, Taylor had taken offense to the lyric in his track Famous, and the accompanying music video also depicted a naked Taylor lying in his bed next to him – along with a whole host of other celebrities – with nude Kim on the other side.

Kanye defended the line, claiming he had a conversation with Taylor about the lyrics in question ahead of time, which she denied.

However, Swift continued to accuse Kanye of lying about asking her permission to reference her in his lyrics which prompted now ex-wife Kim to release a partial recording of the call in question.

‘I’m really glad you had the respect to call me that and tell me that as a friend, about the song. It’s just a really cool thing to do, and a really good show of friendship,’ Taylor is heard saying

Taylor hit back by claiming that although Kanye spoke through some aspects of the lyrics, she did not consent to being referred to as a ‘b***h.’

The Bad Blood hitmaker recently opened up about the effect the lyrics had on her as well as the bitter feud between the rapper and SKIMS founder.

While talking to TIME after being named the magazine’s Person of the Year in December 2023, she dished on the dispute which started when West wrote the vulgar lyrics about the rising star.
