Taylor Swift Releases Retitled Version Of thank You aimEe, Capitalizing YE Instead Of KIM

Aug 16, 2024 · 3:23 PM Blog

Look what you made her do, Ye!

The feud between Taylor Swift and Kanye West seems far from over, with the two musicians persistently taking digs at each other.

On Thursday, August 15, the Bad Blood singer released a retitled version of her diss track, thanK you aIMee — which initially spelled KIM in capital letters — on a new digital version of The Tortured Poets Department album. This time, Swift seems to be taking aim at Kardashian’s ex-husband, Kanye West.

The aforementioned track on Swift’s brand-new version of the TTPD disc capitalizes the words thank You aimEe, which appears to be a reference to the Donda rapper, who now famously goes by Ye. The song is the live rendition the singer performed at her Eras Tour show in Wembley in July, where she mashed it with Mean, another song that talks about a bully, from her album, Speak Now.

Swift’s move comes shortly after the Text founder name-dropped her and her Super Bowl-winning boyfriend, Travis Kelce, on his recent album, Vultures 2. “I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce,” he rapped in his song, Lifestyle (Demo). The latter part of the lyric references Kelce’s position in his team.

The perceived barb directed at Kanye by the Lover singer called for a double celebration among Swifties, who helped Taylor block Kanye’s latest project from taking the number-one spot on the Billboard 200 chart. Earlier this week, the 14-time Grammy winner made history by breaking West’s record of having 11 consecutive No. 1 albums on the said music chart, as her TTPD reigned atop it for the 14th week since its release in April.

Swift and Ye’s decades-long feud dates back to the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, where the rapper famously interrupted her Best Female Video award acceptance speech to announce that he believed Beyoncé should have won the accolade instead.

The duo seemingly made up after the incident, but the feud was reignited after West name-dropped Swift on his 2016 song Famous, in which he sang: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sx / Why? I made that b*** famous.” Kim, his wife at the time, supported him through the conflict.

Supriya Sule’s Dig At “Brothers”, Days After Ajit Pawar’s “Mistake” Claim

Aug 16, 2024 · 3:23 PM Blog

NCP (SP) leader Supriya Sule took a pointed dig at her cousin and Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, accusing him of mixing business with personal relationships. Ms Sule’s comments come days after Ajit Pawar claimed that he “regretted” fielding his wife, Sunetra Pawar, against Ms Sule in the Lok Sabha election earlier this year.

Ms Sule, who is the daughter of NCP founder Sharad Pawar, said: “The state government did not remember beloved Sisters during Lok Sabha polls, their love started overflowing during assembly polls.”

“Sadly, our brothers could not differentiate between relations and business. One should not bring money into relationships and not bring relations into business. However, our brother failed to understand this. This has hurt us a lot,” she added.

Ms Sule’s criticism did not stop there. She took a broader swipe at the NDA government, accusing it of using welfare schemes as tools for electoral gain rather than genuine concern for the people. “This government does everything only for votes. They do nothing with genuine intent. This is the impact of the Lok Sabha elections. Two years ago, no one showed any affection or concern for sisters. This is solely the effect of the Lok Sabha elections,” she asserted.

The comments appeared to be directed at the much-debated “Ladki Bahin” scheme of the Maharashtra government.

Ajit Pawar is currently on a statewide ‘Jan Samman Yatra,’ promoting various government initiatives, including the Mukhyamantri Ladki Bahin Yojana. This program, which offers Rs 1,500 per month to women, has been at the centre of controversy. Ms Sule, criticising the scheme, has urged women to withdraw the money from their accounts. “I request my Ladli Behan to withdraw the money quickly as you cannot trust this government,” she warned.

But her comments were significantly timed, days after her cousin expressed regret for fielding his wife Sunetra Pawar against Supriya Sule in the Baramati constituency in the Lok Sabha polls.

“I love all my sisters. One shouldn’t allow politics to enter homes. I made a mistake in fielding Sunetra against my sister. This shouldn’t have happened. But the parliamentary board (of NCP) made a decision. Now I feel it was wrong,” Ajit Pawar told a Marathi news channel on Monday.

Sunetra Pawar failed to unseat Ms Sule from the Baramati constituency.

Elections to the 288-seat Maharashtra assembly are scheduled to be held this year. Ms Sule, part of the Sharad Pawar-led NCP is an ally of the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) and the Congress.
