It appears Kanye West is holding fast to his years-long feud with Taylor Swift. The controversial rapper recently returned with another rant on social media. West penned down the reasons why he was never asked to perform at the Super Bowl halftime shows. One of which he claims is Swift. In a since-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter), the 47-year-old rapper claimed he “never was allowed to do the Super Bowl because of 3 moments.”
The first reason West wrote was that “George Bush don’t care about black people.” The record producer continued, “The Taylor Swift movement moment.” And in the final reason, West added, “Wearing a MAGA [Make America Great Again] hat.” Furthermore, the singer also wrote, “How it feel to be the best living and blocked from the main stage because of being ahead of my time.” He added, “(And I mean all of this was before I went full Nazi of course).” West referred to his controversial antisemitic remarks over the years.
West’s mention of Swift in his new post was expected to garner attention. His feud with the singer dates back to 2009 when he interrupted her acceptance speech for Best Female Video at the MTV Video Music Awards to state that Beyonce should have won instead. Following that, West even dragged Swift’s name into his 2016 song “Famous.” After his latest tweet, it now appears the feud may still not be over.
