Kanye West has gone on ANOTHER Twitter rant, after he was slammed for his lyrics about Taylor Swift in his new song Famous. Kanye and Taylor fell out back in 2009 when he crashed her speech at the MTV VMA’s as she collected an award and in the track he raps,“I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ Why? I made that bitch famous.”
A rep for Taylor spoke out about the song earlier:
“Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single Famous on her Twitter account. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, “I made that bitch famous.”
Meanwhile, Taylor’s family and friends - including Gigi Hadid, Ruby Rose and Jamie King - responsed angrily to the track.
Kanye has now spoken out claiming the whole thing was Taylor's idea and his wife Kim Kardashian was fine with it.
