Kanye West and Taylor Swift have been in a years-long feud since he mentioned her in the 2016 song 'Famous.'

Kanye West has made another reference to Taylor Swift on his and Ty Dolla Sign's new album Vultures.

Kanye and Swift famously had a public fight the last time she mentioned her in a song. In the 2016 song, titled Famous, Kanye sang: “To all my southside blacks that know me best / I feel like me and Taylor could still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous.”

In the new song, titled Carnival, Kanye mentions Taylor, along with accused rapist Bill Cosby. “Now I'm Ye Kelly, bitch / Now I'm Bill Cosby, bitch / Now I'm Puff Daddy rich / That's me too rich,” she sang, according to Forbes.

“I mean since Taylor Swift, since I had a Rollie on my wrist / I'm the new Jesus, bitch / I turned water into Kris / This because of what they did to Chris / They can't do anything* *Not with this,” he continues.

In 2016, Taylor took offense to the Praise the Lord The rapper called her a “bitch on Famous and also denied giving her permission to do so.

Kanye's ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, then released a cut version of the Karma creator's phone call where she appeared to be okay with being mentioned in the song.

In his recent interview with TIME magazine, Taylor spoke about the backlash after the phone call was published.

“Make no mistake: They took my career away from me,” he said. “You have a completely fabricated frame, in an illegally recorded phone call, that Kim Kardashian edited and then posted to tell everyone I was a liar.”

She continued: “That took me psychologically to a place I had never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn't leave a rental house for a year. “I was afraid of receiving phone calls.”

“But I've also learned that there's no point in actively trying to, quote, defeat your enemies. The garbage takes itself out every time,” he added.
