Kanye West addressed a number of topics in a lengthy Instagram post on Wednesday.
Ye shared a screenshot of a social media post from a Taylor Swift fan urging the pop star’s devotees to buy and stream Beyoncé’s latest single “Texas Hold ‘Em” to put it at No. 1 over anything from Kanye and Ty Dolla Sign’s Vultures 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The user’s rallying cry concludes, “REMEMBER he just DRAGGED Taylor on his latest Instagram Story.”
“When I said that I’m the new Jesus bitch I wasn’t even thinking about Taylor Swift,” Kanye wrote in all caps. “That was a whole line before but I appreciate the free promo.” Ye attempted to take neutral ground with fans of Taylor, saying he is neither their enemy or friend.
West claims he was supportive of the singer after Scooter Braun acquired her catalog, believes he has “been far more helpful to Taylor Swift’s career than harmful,” and admits “she and Beyoncé are big inspirations to all musicians.” See below:
