In Kanye West's new track 'Famous', he raps "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, I made that bitch famous."
Soon after the lyrics leaked, Kanye assured everyone Swift was cool with the line and had given him her approval.
Apparently not.
"Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single 'Famous' on her Twitter account," Swift's people said in statement. "She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, "I made that bitch famous."This morning 'Ye had something to say about that.
