A third social media user criticized the singer: “Taylor Swift doesn’t care about the fight, she’s stopping another promising woman from reaching number one, but she’s making it seem like this release is meant to criticize Kanye so she can still call herself a feminist.”
Taylor Swift doesn’t care about the beef she’s stopping another upcoming woman from getting a #1 but she’s making it seem like this release is about digging at Kanye so she can still call herself a feminist.

It all started in 2009, when Swift began to sweep music awards. Kanye Westmarried to Kardashian at the time, interrupted the singer’s acceptance speech during the VMA and stated that Beyoncé should have taken home the top award of the night. The awkward moment was followed by the release of the track “Famous,” in which West sings the verses: “I feel that Taylor Swift still owes me sex / I made that bitch famous.”
It was left to Kimwho was bombarded with questions about her feelings regarding the fact that her husband was talking about sex with another woman. As shown on the reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashiansthe socialite came to the rapper’s defense and criticized Swift for taking the disagreement too far.
What does the song say?
More than a decade later, the “Anti-Hero” hitmaker seems to still be dragging her feet. In the track “thanK you aIMee,” the capitalized letters spell out the name of Kim. One excerpt reads: “And one day, your son comes home singing / A song that only the two of us will know is about you.”
The chorus, meanwhile, goes: “All that time you were throwing punches, it was all for nothing / And our town, it seems so small, from up here / I screamed ‘Thank you, Aimee’ to the night sky, and the stars are dazzling / ‘Cause I can’t forget the way you made me heal.”
It didn’t take long for internet users to rescue a video that shows Kim next to North Westher eldest daughter, singing “Shake it Off” by Swift. “Taylor Swift made a diss track about Kim Kardashian in 2024″, wrote a user on Twitter.

“The music that Taylor Swift did to Kim Kardashianit seems like an indirect message from a teenager. But that’s okay, because even though she’s a 34-year-old woman, most of her audience is teenagers”, argued the internet user.
The song Taylor Swift wrote for Kim Kardashian sounds like a teenage girl’s indirect message. But that’s okay, because even though she’s a 34-year-old woman, most of her audience is teenagers.
