Swifties Enraged by Kanye West’s Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Mentions in New Song

The feud between Taylor Swift and Kanye West is one of the most well-known celebrity battles, spanning multiple years. It all began when Kanye interrupted Taylor’s VMA speech in 2009, claiming Beyoncé deserved the award instead. In 2016, Kanye released his song “Famous,” which contained unkind lyrics about Taylor, accompanied by a provocative music video. This led Taylor to step back from the spotlight for a year, resurfacing with her album Reputation.

Recently, Taylor reminded everyone that while she might forgive, she doesn’t forget. In her TIME Person of the Year interview, she called out Kim Kardashian for releasing an edited video where Kanye claimed Taylor had approved the controversial lyrics. Now, it seems Kanye is responding with a new song that again mentions Taylor, bringing her boyfriend into the mix. Read on for more details.

On August 3rd, Kanye West dropped his new album, Vultures 2, with the song “Lifestyle (Demo)” catching the attention of Swifties everywhere. The lyrics that raised eyebrows read, “I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce.” Here, “Taylor” refers to the “Shake It Off” singer, and “tight at the end” nods to her boyfriend’s position on the Kansas City Chiefs.

Many fans were puzzled as to why Kanye would mention Taylor again, given his previous troubles with her. They felt that messing with Taylor Swift has historically not ended well for any celebrity.

For those unfamiliar, Kanye first caused an uproar with his 2016 song “Famous,” where he rapped, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b*tch famous / I made that b*tch famous.” The accompanying music video was also controversial, showing a wax figure of Taylor Swift naked in a bed next to Kanye.

Matters were further complicated when Kanye and the Kardashian clan accused Taylor of approving the lyrics, releasing an edited video of their phone conversation. Taylor expressed her outrage, contributing to the escalating tension.

Unsurprisingly, Swifties took to social media to slam Kanye for his recent name drop. Comments on various platforms accused Kanye of trying to stay relevant by mentioning Taylor. “Anything to try and stay relevant,” one Swiftie remarked. Another added, “Kanye just wants to ride on Taylor’s coattail to find relevance now. Poor guy.”

Other fans echoed similar sentiments, saying, “Someone doesn’t move on,” and “He’s obsessed at this point!” Numerous snake emojis also made an appearance, reminiscent of when Taylor called out Kim Kardashian for the edited video release.

It’s evident that Swifties will always stand by their pop star, showing unwavering support. As the feud continues to evolve, both sides have loyal supporters reacting fiercely to every new development. One thing is clear: the drama between Taylor Swift and Kanye West isn’t fading into obscurity anytime soon.
