In the music scene lately, there’s been some serious buzz about giving undeserving awards and whatnot. It’s like everyone’s holding their breath, dying to say what they think about Taylor Swift winning at the Grammys. And of course, Kanye West is gonna name-drop Taylor Swift. He is not the one to hold anything back. He is gonna say what he thinks in one way or another. So, what’s the deal? Get ready, because we’re about to dive into the drama of more of a decade.
Kanye West Name-Drops Taylor Swift
Kanye West’s latest album drop, “Vultures 1,” has really set tongues wagging, especially with one particular track where he brings up Taylor Swift again. In “Carnival,” he spits out the line, “I made six Taylor Swift,” reigniting that whole messy history between them. The whole lyrics on that vers go like this:
She gon’ take it up the ass , like a ventriloquist
I made six Taylor Swifts, since I had the Rollie on the wrist
I’m the new Jesus, bitch , I turn water to crist
This for what they did to Chris , they can’t do shit with this
Got my kids in a fake school , we ain’t
This isn’t the first time Kanye’s mentioned Taylor in his music. Ever since that wild moment at the 2009 MTV VMAs, their relationship’s been like a rollercoaster ride of drama, diss tracks, and public spats.
But this time, with “Carnival,” it feels like Kanye’s poking the bear again. Swift’s fanbase is not having it. They’re calling him out for using her name to stay relevant, and the criticism’s been harsh. On social media, you can see fans airing their disappointment, calling Kanye “desperate” and questioning why he’s still fixated on Swift.
Even though “Vultures 1” was hotly anticipated, this Taylor Swift reference seems to be overshadowing everything else. It’s like throwing gas on an already raging fire. The Kanye West vs. Taylor Swift feud just won’t die down, and it’s playing out big time online.
