Famous (Kanye West song)

Famous is a hip-hop song by American rapper Kanye West. It is the lead single in his seventh studio album, The Life of Pablo. The song also features vocals from Barbadian singer Rihanna.[1] This song has been a part of the Kanye West-Taylor Swift feud, as it contains these lyrics that insult American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift because of West's interruption of Swift's 2009 MTV Video Music Awards and the aftermath:[2]

For all my South Side niggas that know me best
I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex
Why? I made that bitch famous
(Goddamn!)
I made that bitch famous.[3]
