You're probably aware of the long-running feud between Taylor Swift and Katy Perry.
Then came Taylor's very public falling out with Nicki Minaj, in which Taylor told her, "It's unlike you to pit women against each other."
And Katy chimed in with this not-so-cryptic tweet, referencing the success of "Bad Blood."
Then, when Taylor's ex Calvin Harris went on a Twitter rant after their breakup last year, he made this reference to Katy.
And Katy responded with this tweet.
Since then, the pair have let things lie.
However, Katy has now released a track, "Swish Swish", from her upcoming album. And people are convinced that it's about a certain Taylor Swift.
Let's take a look at the evidence.
Here are the lyrics from the first verse:
A tiger
Don't lose no sleep
Don't need opinions
From a selfish or a sheep.
Don't you come for me
No, not today.
You're calculated
I got your number
'Cause you're a joker
And I'm a courtside killer queen
And you will kiss the ring
You best believe
The reference to "Tiger" and "Sheep" are pretty damn interesting.
...because the day after Taylor's Rolling Stone interview was released, Katy tweeted this:
The next line, "Don't you come for me", is pretty 👀 too.
When Katy was asked whether her new album has any response to the song, she answered using words extremely similar to the lyric. Katy said:
I think my new album is a very empowered record. One thing to note is: You can't mistake kindness for weakness, and don't come for me. Anyone.
Then there's a lyric describing the subject of the song as "calculated".
Don't you come for me
No, not today
You're calculated
I got your number
It's a word that has been used to describe Taylor before – and one she hates.
The writer of a GQ profile about her noted:
Late in our lunch, I mention something that happened several years ago: By chance, I’d found myself having dinner with a former acquaintance of Swift’s who offhandedly described her as “calculating.” This is the only moment during our interview when Swift appears remotely flustered. She really, really hates the word calculating. She despises how it has become tethered to her iconography and believes the person I met has been the singular voice regurgitating this categorization.
Later in the song there's the line: "Funny my name keeps coming out your mouth."
And then there's a reference to "karma" and "receipts" in this verse.
Your game is tired
You should retire
You're 'bout cute as
An old coupon expired
And karma's not a liar
She keeps receipts
