Kanye's fans on Reddit have planned to prevent Taylor from getting the No. 1 spot with her new music by repeatedly playing 'Hey Mama' on November 10.

AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift has apparently enraged not only Kanye West, but also his fans with her new music. After a recent report suggested that the songstress intentionally planned to release her new album "Reputation" on the 10th anniversary of the rapper's mother Donda West's death on November 10, Kanye's fans have now united to thwart Taylor from getting No. 1 spot with her album.
While Taylor's label has basically insisted that "there is no correlation" between the release date and Donda's death anniversary, it looks like the rapper's fans won't buy it. According to a thread on r/Kanye subreddit, fans are joining forces to reclaim the day, dubbing November 10 "Hey Mama Day". They plan to stream Kanye's one particular song titled "Hey Mama" throughout the course of the day, in the hopes that it will rise to the top of the streaming charts.
"Basically, Taylor Swift has released a Kanye diss track, taken shots at Kim's Paris robbery, and has stolen Kanye's font and cover art style for her new album 'Reputation'. Most importantly she is planning on releasing it on the anniversary of Kanye's mother, Donda West's death--November 10," the post on the site reads.
"Basically, we have the idea to repeatedly stream a singular kanye song on that date, hopefully getting that song the #1 spot on daily streams over any of Taylor's songs," it continues. "We are focusing on a single song as it will be much easier to concentrate our efforts into that, than say a whole album getting to #1. Please all share this around to get as wide a reach as possible and outstream Taylor, simultaneously showing respect for Donda and utmost support for Kanye himself."
But rest assured, fans. Kanye is said to be cooking up new music to get back at Taylor. "Kanye is clearly pissed over the song," a source previously said. "When it comes to Kanye he lives in the music world and doesn't want anyone to have a one up on him and this track is clearly going to be responded to, Taylor hasn't heard the last of Kanye's wrath."
Taylor's highly-publicized feud with Kanye sparked last year when the spitter's song "Famous" included the lines, "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ Why? I made that b***h famous." In response to the controversial lyrics, Taylor said, "While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye on the phone call, you cannot 'approve' a song you haven't heard."
"Being falsely painted a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination," she added. "I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009."
