Kanye’s The Life of Pablo track “Famous” is easily the most controversial song he’s released in some time, mainly because of the infamous Taylor Swift lyric and the ensuing backlash and conflict that it caused.

Most notably though, Kanye’s Taylor lyric is a bit different here as he raps “I feel like Taylor Swift still owes me sex”. Then, he repeats the line but swaps in the name of his ex Amber Rose.
