The artist describes the nature of his influence in an exclusive video interview with TIME_ by [Nash Jenkins](https://time.com/author/p-nash-jenkins/) ## Nash Jenkins Jul 18, 2016 8:27 AM UTC  Taylor Swift arrives at the 64th Annual BMI Pop Awards at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel on May 10, 2016 in Beverly Hills, California. Taylor Swift arrives at the 64th Annual BMI Pop Awards at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel on May 10, 2016 in Beverly Hills, California.Steve Granitz—WireImage/Getty Images by [Nash Jenkins](https://time.com/author/p-nash-jenkins/) ## Nash Jenkins Jul 18, 2016 8:27 AM UTC On Sunday evening, Kim Kardashian West posted [a tweet](https://twitter.com/KimKardashian/status/754856613027024896) that at the time seemed harmless enough: “do u guys follow me on snap chat?” she wrote. “u really should ;-)” It was retweeted thousands of times, and those who heeded her call were greeted on Snapchat with footage that has, for want of a less cringeworthy term, broken the Internet. In the undated video, we see her husband Kanye West apparently on a speakerphone call with Taylor Swift, informing her that he was referencing her in his song “Famous.” The lyric in question: “For all my Southside n\*\*\*\*\* that know me best / I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b\*\*\*\* famous.” Swift appears to be heard on the other end calling the shout-out “tongue in cheek” and saying that she “really appreciate\[d\]” West giving her a heads-up. (The call is available in its entirety [here](https://twitter.com/ShadyPopMusic/status/754875096976744448?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw).) The years-long feud between the Wests and Swift has been one of the great culture dramas of our age. In February, the _Guardian_ [reports](https://www.theguardian.com/music/2016/jul/18/taylor-swift-condemns-kim-kardashians-release-of-kanye-west-phone-call?CMP=twt%5Fgu), Swift’s representative claimed that “Kanye did not call for approval” about the track, and that Swift was “never made aware of the actual lyric ‘I made that b\*\*\*\* famous.'” After Kardashian West posted the video, Swift was, er, swift to speak out. “Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that b\*\*\*\*’ in his song?” she wrote in a statement she shared on Twitter. “It doesn’t exist because it never happened. You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called ‘that b\*\*\*\*’ in front of the entire world.” > [](https://twitter.com/taylorswift13/status/754894689900359680) She goes on to say she has been “falsely painted as a liar,” describing the matter as “character assassination.” At the time of press, however, the court of popular opinion seemed to be ruling in the Wests’ favor. The hashtag #KimExposedTaylorParty was trending on Twitter into the early hours of Monday morning; click it and find a litany of tweets cheering Kardashian West. > [](https://twitter.com/LordPedroso/status/754943847344451584) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4410084/kanye-kim-kardashian-taylor-famous-call/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4410084/kanye-kim-kardashian-taylor-famous-call/"},"headline":"Kim Kardashian's Snapchat Takes Taylor Swift Feud to a New Level","datePublished":"2016-07-18T08:27:01.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T07:55:21.141Z","description":"Swift has responded, but the court of popular opinion isn't having it","url":"https://time.com/4410084/kanye-kim-kardashian-taylor-famous-call/","keywords":["celebrities","Kanye West","Taylor Swift","Kim Kardashian"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltace43bc4e99a7977/69889c44e20a875684a919eb/gettyimages-530627044.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nash Jenkins","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/p-nash-jenkins/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltace43bc4e99a7977/69889c44e20a875684a919eb/gettyimages-530627044.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"64th Annual BMI Pop Awards - Arrivals","caption":"64th Annual BMI Pop Awards - Arrivals","creditText":"Steve Granitz—WireImage/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/celebrities/","name":"celebrities"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4410084/kanye-kim-kardashian-taylor-famous-call/","name":"Kim Kardashian's Snapchat Takes Taylor Swift Feud to a New Level"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Kanye West on Why He's Not in a Competition With Anyone","description":"The artist describes the nature of his influence in an exclusive video interview with TIME","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/1U0iGYZB/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-04-16T01:23:28.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/1U0iGYZB.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4410084/kanye-kim-kardashian-taylor-famous-call/","duration":"PT2M7S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4410084/kanye-kim-kardashian-taylor-famous-call/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
