If seemingly reigniting his feud with Taylor Swift wasn't enough - Kanye West has now made a disgusting remark about the 35-year-old pop icon.
In the early hours of Thursday morning, the controversial rapper, who is now no stranger to taking to X to share his rather shocking opinions on things, did the same again, this time making several allegations against Taylor, who he was embroiled in public feud with that began in 2009 and continued for years, fueled by Kanye's actions at the MTV VMAs and his subsequent song Famous.

Kanye, 47, began by claiming: "I’ll show you an example of racism. Justin Bieber and Harry styles f----d Taylor swift from both sides and didn’t call me. Oh I forgot. I can’t hold water."

The Carnival rapper, shared another post moments after that read: "IM MAD I HAVENT F----D TAYLOR SWIFT … YET."
The vile posts were quickly deleted.

This isn't the first time Kanye has referenced the Bad Blood singer in one of his unhinged X rants. Just yesterday, Kanye claimed Taylor is the reason why he hasn't been invited to headline the Super Bowl halftime show.
The highly sought-after slot has seen the likes of Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Prince, The Weeknd, and Michael Jackson perform at the huge sporting event.
"I never was allowed to do the Super Bowl because of three moments. George Bush don’t care about Black people. The Taylor Swift movement moment. Wearing a MAGA hat," he alleged on X.
Kayne, who is a father to four children, went on to say he got "blocked from the main stage" for being ahead of his time, even before he "went full Nazi," in the since-deleted X post, captured by WorldStarHipHop.
Kanye and Taylor's saga has been ongoing for the last decade and a half. Taylor was dragged into a feud by Kanye 15 years ago when he ambushed the singer-songwriter on stage at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.
The singer, who was just 20 years old at the time, was giving an acceptance speech when Kanye pounced on to the stage, grabbed the mic from her, and declared she shouldn't have won.
At the televised event, Kanye declared: "Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'mma let you finish. But Beyonce had one of the best videos of all-time! One of the best videos of all-time." Beyonce later asked Taylor back onto the stage to let her finish her speech.
Ever since, Kanye has gone on a largely one-sided vendetta against Taylor, even going as far as to call her a "b----" in one of his tracks. He claimed he had her permission at the time, which was later disproven.
Then in 2019, Taylor spoke to Vogue about how the spat had affected her and her mental health, describing the feud as a "mass public shaming", which made her feel "very isolated".
Mirror US has reached out to Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, and Justin Bieber's team for comment.
