Kanye West returns to music alongside Ty Dolla $ign, releasing his new album Vultures 1, and it seems Kanye couldn’t pass up the opportunity, again, to take a dig at Taylor Swift.
However, even though the singer on several occasions has made it clear that he doesn’t like Swift at all, curiously, West’s new album becomes his thirteenth album, a number that is, coincidentally, Taylor’s lucky one.
Vultures 1 suffered from several release delays, and although it is not known exactly why, on February 9 it finally had its release on streaming platforms.
What Happened Between Taylor Swift and Kanye West?
The dispute between the “Karma” singer and West began at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009, when the rapper interrupted Taylor Swift during her speech after winning the award for Best Female Video, saying that Beyoncé deserved to win.
This incident generated a lot of controversy and caused the relationship between the two artists to become strained. Later, in 2016, Kanye released the song “Famous,” in which he sings “I feel like me and Taylor could still have sex / Why, I made that f*ckin’ famous!” Immediately, Tay expressed her annoyance, while Kanye claimed that Taylor had pre-approved the lyrics, which generated even more controversy.
In 2018, Kanye publicly apologized for the incident, and it appeared that they were trying to put their differences behind them. However, in 2020, a video of an alleged phone call between Taylor and Kanye discussing the song “Famous” was leaked, which reignited the feud between them.
What Does Kanye West Say About Taylor Swift on Vultures?
Kanye West has once again attacked Taylor in the song “Carnival” from his new album Vultures 1. In one part of the song, West says: “I made 6 Taylor Swift, ever since I had on my wrist the Rollie, I’m the new Jesus, f*ck you, I turn water into Crist*.”
However, unlike in the past, this time Taylor Swift has chosen to remain silent, because, so far, she is busy with her tour in Japan and her arrival at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce.
