Last night, Kanye West came under fire after lyrics from his new song “Famous” rubbed many — including Taylor Swift’s camp — the wrong way.
If you haven’t heard, there’s a line in the song that goes:
“I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ I made that bitch famous.”
There was a bit of he-said, she-said going on with Kanye’s camp claiming he asked Taylor for approval before putting the line in the song and Taylor’s camp denying she ever heard the song, despite allegedly ‘warning’ Kanye about releasing a song with such a ‘strong misogynistic message.’
Kanye took to Twitter this morning to speak on the issue directly, insisting he had an ‘hour long convo’ with Taylor — and that she’s the one who came up with the idea for the lyrics in the first place.

So — who do you believe? Is Taylor’s camp trying to a little image control, or do you think Kanye West is telling the truth?
