AceShowbiz - As promised, Kanye West debuted his new album "The Life of Pablo" during the Yeezy Season 3 fashion show on Thursday, February 11. Among tracks he played at the event, "Famous" was probably the most surprising one as it features a shot directed at whom everyone thought was his former nemesis, Taylor Swift.
"I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. I made that b***h famous," 'Ye raps at one point during the song, which also features Rihanna. The name-check came nearly a year after he and the former country diva publicly ended their feud that started when he interrupted her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.
Swift hasn't responded to West's lyrics about her, but numerous Twitter users have and they understandably defended the 26-year-old songbird. " 'I made that b***h famous' is a weird thing for Kanye West to say about Taylor Swift given that she was winning an award when that went down," tweeted BuzzFeed's senior entertainment editor Jarett Wieselman.

"Quick list of people who made Taylor Swift famous: 1) Taylor Swift," another Twitter user who goes by Alex Goldschmidt wrote. "I didn't realize that Taylor wasn't famous before Kanye interrupted her while she was receiving a Grammy on TV. Good thing he found her," Seth Reineke sarcastically added.

West's "The Life of Pablo" was released on the same day the Yeezy 3 show took place at New York's Madison Square Garden. The event was streamed live on Tidal and was attended by the rapper's wife Kim Kardashian and her famous family as well as Blac Chyna, who's currently dating Rob Kardashian, and Lamar Odom, who made his first public appearance since hospitalized last year.
