The music industry is abuzz with Taylor Swift‘s latest album release, “The Tortured Poets Department.” One song in particular, “thanK you aIMee,” has caught the attention of fans and critics alike due to its seemingly pointed lyrics and peculiar capitalization that hint at Kim Kardashian.
The song’s title, “thanK you aIMee,” features unusual capitalization that spells out the name “Kim.” This peculiar detail has stirred the internet, with fans speculating that the song may be a veiled jab at Kim Kardashian.
The lyrics of “thanK you aIMee” describe a “bronze spray-tanned statue” in Taylor’s hometown that “threatens to push me down the stairs at our school.” This imagery has further fueled the speculation that this song is a thinly veiled commentary on Kim Kardashian.
“All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed f*** you, Aimee to the night sky, as the blood was gushing. But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.”
The lyrics seem to suggest a struggle and a difficult healing process that Taylor underwent, which fans believe could be a reference to her public feud with Kim and Kanye West.
The song also mentions Taylor’s mother, Andrea Swift, who allegedly wished for “aIMee” to be “dead.” This line further cements the belief that this song is a direct hit at a specific individual, with many believing that individual to be Kim Kardashian.
An interesting line in the song talks about “aIMee’s” kids who will be singing Taylor’s songs one day, including this one. This could be a subtle dig at Kim as her daughter, North, has been seen singing Taylor’s songs on TikTok.
This song appears to be a continuation of the years-long feud between Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian, which originated in 2016 involving Kanye West and the infamous “Famous” saga. This feud was once one of the hottest topics in Hollywood, and this song seems to be Taylor’s way of rekindling those flames.
In an interview with TIME last year, Taylor Swift expressed that she never received an apology from Kim Kardashian. This unresolved issue might have been a driving force behind the creation of “thanK you aIMee.”
“I never got an apology from Kim … and suggested she was still owed one, even now.”
This controversial song is just one of the many intriguing pieces from ‘TTPD.’ Fans and critics are eager to dissect the rest of the album and unearth any other hidden messages or dedications that Taylor might have included.
