Taylor Swift Has A Diss Track With Numerous Direct Shots At Kim Kardashian In Her New Album
Taylor Swift appears to be taking aim at Kim Kardashian on her new album.
Since Friday’s release of Taylor Swift’s latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department” and her surprise double album “The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology,” fans of Taylor Swift have been noticing lyrics directed to past relationships and traumas as well as an ongoing feud with Kim Kardashian.
In Swift’s track titled “thanK you aIMee,” Swift could be heard singing about a “bronze, spray-tanned” mean girl at school that her mom wishes were “dead.”
“All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed ‘F— you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushing,’” she sings. “But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.”
Also, the title has the capitalized letters KIM in it to make sure people know what the song is about.
In the second verse, Taylor slams the headlines that she alleges Kim caused with her actions when she suddenly shared footage of the infamous 2016 phone call between Taylor and Kanye West.
“And it wasn’t a fair fight, or a clean kill / Each time that Aimee stomped across my gravе,” she sings. “And then she wrote hеadlines / In the local paper, laughing at each baby step I’d take.”
EOnline reported that Taylor Swift spoke about her mental health in December over the public fallout between her, Kim, and Kanye. She told TIME, “You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar. That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before.”
Swift doesn’t directly name Kardashian, but every verse seemed to have an Easter egg of information that alluded to her.
“I don’t think you’ve changed much/ And so I changed your name and any real defining clues,” Swift sings on the track. “And one day, your kid comes home singin’/ A song that only us two is gonna know is about you.”
Their feud goes way back to 2016 when Kim’s then-husband Kanye West rapped about how he and Swift “might still have sex” because he “made that b—- famous.” Her release of a clip of a recorded phone call changed everything between all three of them.
The backlash took a toll on Taylor Swift’s mental health after she was branded a “liar.”
“A mass public shaming, with millions of people saying you are quote-unquote canceled, is a very isolating experience,” she said in a 2019 interview with Vogue. “When you say someone is canceled, it’s not a TV show. It’s a human being. You’re sending mass amounts of messaging to this person to either shut up, disappear, or it could also be perceived as, ‘Kill yourself.’”
