After the infamous VMAs moment, Ye dissed Taylor Swift in his song ‘Famous.’ “Me and Taylor still might have sex / I made that b-tch famous,” he rapped.
Things then heated up when Kim Kardashian released a phone call between Taylor Swift and Ye to convince the world that Swift is a liar.
Fans can hear an exchange between Taylor and Ye in the infamous phone call, which mainly focused on two variations of one lyric. “I feel like me and Taylor Swift might still have sex” versus “I feel like Taylor Swift might still owe me sex.”
“I feel like with my wife [Kim], that she probably didn’t like the ‘might still have sex’ because it would be like, what if she was on a TV show and said ‘Me and Tom Brady might still have sex’ or something?” Ye told the ‘Red’ singer.

She then responded, “You have to protect your relationship. Do what’s best. You just had a kid. You’re in the best place of your life. I wouldn’t ever advise you to f-ck with that.” She is then heard arguing over the “owe me sex” line, which Kim reportedly preferred.

At one point during the phone call, Swift says, “I need to think about it, because, you know, when you hear something for the first time, you just need to think about it. Because it is absolutely crazy. I’m glad it’s not mean, though.”
Ye later said, “I’m going to send you the song and send you the exact wording and everything about it, right? And then we could sit and talk through it.” At the end of the call, Ye tells Swift, “I’m gonna go lay this verse, and I’m gonna send it to you right now” and Swift says, “Send it to me. I’m excited.”

She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t,” she said at the time. “I swear, my husband gets so much sh-t for things [when] he really was doing proper protocol and even called to get it approved.”

Right off the bat, Swifties couldn’t help but notice there were three capitalized letters in the song title, and they spelled out “KIM.”
But then, as fans listened to ‘thanK you aIMee,’ which was released in the second drop of Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology,’ they determined that Swift made several jabs toward the SKIMS founder.
One of the first lyrics sung in the track goes: “There’s a bronze spray-tanned statue of you / And a plaque underneath it / That threatens to push me down the stairs, at our school,” which many believe is a reference to Kardashian’s famous tan.
‘I Can’t Forgive The Way You Made Me Feel’

“And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed ‘F-ck you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushin’ / But I can’t forget the way you made me heal, ” the song continues.
“And maybe you’ve reframed it / And in your mind, you never beat my spirit black and blue / I don’t think you’ve changed much / And so I changed your name and any real defining clues / And one day, your kid comes home singin’ / A song that only us two is gonna know is about you.”
‘The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology’ is out now.
