LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Travis Kelce’s father has given a strong response to Kanye West’s naming the Kansas City Chiefs star and his girlfriend Taylor Swift in his 'Lifestyle' song on 'Vultures 2' album.

Ed Kelce's caption referred to Kanye West previously admitting that he lives with bipolar disorder.

In the ‘Vultures 2’ track, Lil Wayne raps “I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce.”

Born on June 8, 1977, in Atlanta, Georgia, Kanye West, aka Ye, is a highly influential rapper and producer. His discography includes groundbreaking albums such as 'The College Dropout,' 'Late Registration,' and 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.'

The feud between West and Swift began when the rapper took a dig at the ‘Karma’ singer and called her "that bitch” in his song 'Famous'.

It all started with the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards where West interrupted Swift's acceptance speech for Best Female Video and said that the honor should have gone to Beyonce instead.



 

Did Taylor Swift shade Kanye West?

Many Swifties believed the pop icon reacted to Kanye Wayne’s lyrics subtly by a telling tee during her Poland Eras performance, which read “I Bet You Think About Me.”

Meanwhile, Travis has been busy with training with his team Kansas City Chiefs since July and hasn’t responded yet.

Earlier, the tight end joked about his dad’s Facebook activity on the ‘Bussin’ With the Boys’ podcast and revealed that Ed will see headlines and assume the “wild s–t” to be true.



 

The former reality star noted, “He’ll … be like, ‘Hey, what the f–k is this?’ [About] something so f–king out of the blue, like, something about me and Taylor.”

Travis and Swift have been dating since July 2023 and many believe they are soon going to get engaged.

Moreover, in his album 'Vultures' 12th track 'Carnival', he mentioned Swift's name.

The lyrics were, "Why she say she sucked my d***?/ Then she say she ain’t sucked my d*** / She gon’ take it up the ass, like a ventriloquist / I mean since Taylor Swift/ since I had the Rollie on the wrist / I’m the new Jesus, b****, I turn water to Cris’."
