OlderKanye West Claims Taylor Swift Thought His Lyrics Were 'Funny'
Kanye West just went on a long Twitter rant to give his side of the story on the conversation he allegedly had with Taylor Swift about his song “Famous,” which references her using graphic lyrics.
“I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, I made that b—h famous,” the 38-year-old rapper says in the song.
TMZ reported that Kanye spoke to Taylor and got her approval for the lyrics, but her rep then slammed the report and said she warned him that the song had a “strong misogynistic message.”
Kanye is now claiming that Taylor was fully aware of the lyrics and that she thought they were “funny.” He also said his wife Kim Kardashian approved the lyrics.
