Taylor Swift‘s fans have come hard at Kim Kardashian on Instagram Friday as the two ‘savage tracks’ Taylor Swift dropped for her keep trending.
Kim had posted a birthday tribute to her older sister Kourtney Kardashian on Thursday, but by Friday morning its comments were deluged with: ‘Thank you Aimee’ messages from devoted Taylor Swift fans.
Is ‘thanK You aIMee’ on the album?
The two songs were part of the surprise ‘double album’ version of Taylor’s new record The Troubled Poets Department, marking the latest broadside in the pop star’s explosive long-running feud with Kim and her ex-husband Kanye West.
One of the tracks, which is directed at a vicious bully, is called ‘thanK you aIMee’ – with the letters K, I and M tellingly capitalized.
The Lyrics
‘When I picture my hometown, there’s a bronze spray-tanned statue of you,’ Taylor sings at the beginning of the acid-tongued song: ‘and a plaque underneath it that threatens to push me down the stairs at our school.’
‘Swifties’ then flooded onto Kim’s Instagram page to fill her comments with the phrase: ‘Thank you Aimee,’ signaling their loyalty to Taylor, 34.
The Tortured Poets Department has been the talk in everyone’s lips as some people find themselves at the pointy end of Taylor’s razor-tongued attacks.
Taylor effortlessly used the album to ‘troll’ multiple exes, including Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy.

When Was The Troubled Poets Department Released?
Taylor’s 11th studio album was officially released at Friday midnight ET (2am UK time), but just two hours later, she revealed on social media that there was a ‘second installment’, titled The Anthology, having sparked a flurry of speculation that a shock reveal was coming when she shared a countdown clock on social media.
Among the tracks included in that second release is a song titled thanK you aIMee, which fans are now convinced is aimed specifically at Kim.
Fans also called out another song called Cassandra, which makes several references to ‘snakes’; the snake emoji has played a major role in the ongoing feud between Taylor and Kim, as well as the reality star’s ex-husband Kanye West, leading many to believe that the track is yet another subtle jab.
Kim, 43, is said to feel ‘humiliated’ by the track but fears she cannot speak out as she could be ‘destroyed’ by Taylor’s fanbase.
