As you’re probably well aware by now, the internet is pretty worked up about that song “Famous” from Kanye West‘s new album, Life of Pablo. In it, he raps about Taylor Swift: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, I made that bitch famous.” Swift herself slammed the lyrics as “misogynistic,” and West later claimed that the lyrics were somehow her idea.
Tay Tay’s friends aren’t buying it, though, and are coming out in droves on Twitter jump to the “Shake it Off” singer’s defense.

So, Kanye thinks he made Taylor famous because of what exactly? Interrupting her while she was winning an award? OK, that makes sense…

Swift’s brother Austin also filmed himself throwing his pair of Yeezy sneakers in the trash on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Swift BFF Karlie Kloss posted an Instagram selfie wearing Yeezys Thursday night with the caption “On to the next one #NYFW,” which she later removed as fans speculated as to the meaning.
Speaking of fans, Swifties were also out in full force.

It's so ironic how Kanye West clearly wants attention saying he made Taylor Swift famous.

it's so weird that Taylor Swift managed to sell 7 million albums before Kanye "made her famous," how did that happen

I really want @CalvinHarris to give Kanye West some words he is slandering Taylor Swift like no tomorrow

Even if Kanye did make Taylor famous why would she sexually owe him anything. Can we talk about that part of the line too. Thanks!

You have to admit, they make a valid point. The only thing left is to see is what Kanye’s next move will be. When will this madness end???
