except &#8216;frenemy&#8217; Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">That&#8217;s right &#8211; after years of agro between the chart-topping pair,\u00a0<a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tyla.com\/kanye-west\">Kanye<\/a>\u00a0has altered his\u00a0<a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tyla.com\/social-media\">social media<\/a>\u00a0logistics so that he&#8217;s only following the &#8216;Anti-Hero\u00a0<a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tyla.com\/music\">singer.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">For those unfamiliar with the tensions between the hit-makers, their very public dispute kicked off almost 15 years ago, when\u00a0<a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tyla.com\/taylor-swift\">Taylor<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; who was then an up and coming country artist, aged just 19 &#8211; was honoured with an MTV Video Music Award for the Best Female Video.<strong>\u00a0Remind yourself of the moment below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">Kanye presented the accolade, only to rudely interrupt the country star, who told viewers at home at Beyonc\u00e9 should have walked away with the prize.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">A very clearly flustered Taylor was subsequently left both red-faced and embarrassed, and has\u00a0<a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tyla.com\/entertainment\/celebrity\/kanye-west-taylor-swift-vultures-feud-158636-20240215\">since endured a public feud with the &#8216;Stronger&#8217; rapper who has ceaselessly slammed her in his lyrics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">In one of his music videos, he included a naked lookalike model of her, and recorded and released their phonecalls, causing Taylor to fear &#8216;a career death&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">Speaking about their clash, Taylor, 34, told press last year: &#8220;Make no mistake, my career was taken away from me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">By the sounds of things, however, Kanye might not be ready to let go of whatever it is he has against the star, and fans of Taylor are fearing what his new social media cull might mean &#8211;
