Any pop culture fan is well aware of the long standing feud between rapper Kanye West and singer Taylor Swift.

Their enmity could be traced to West infamously interrupting Swift during an acceptance speech at the 2009 Video Music Awards (VMAs).

Things escalated further when in 2016, West released a song “Famous” in which he called Swift a bitch and said that he is the reason she is famous.

The lyrics from “Famous” genereated controversy with many slamming West for the disrespectful lyrics.

West’s wife, Kim Kardashian then released a phonecall between her husband and Swift. The leaked conversation painted Swift as lying that she didn’t give her approval for the lyrics and fans quickly slammed Swift for being a snake.

Swift was labeled as always playing the victim and she was trolled online so badky that she took a break from social media.

The full lenght of the conversation has now been leaked.

The newly released sound footage reveals that Kanye did present song lyrics to the “Reputation” singer but he neglected to mention that he was going to call her a ‘b**ch*’ and claim he made her a star.

In the video, West tells Swift that the lyric he wants her to promote is “I feel like Taylor Swift might owe me sex.”

Swift can be heard asking “Is it going to be mean?”, which West assures her it will not be.

“What I give a fuck about is just you as a person and as a friend,” West said. “I want things that make you feel good.”

Hitting back on Instagram at the time, Taylor wrote:

“You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called ‘that bitch’ in front of the entire world. He promised to play the song for me, but he never did.”

In light of the recording being leaked for all to hear Kim and Kanye have received major backlash online.
