Kanye West has been in the news every day mostly because of his seeming meltdown and deteriorating marriage. While there is grave concern for his mental health there is also an understanding that this happens whenever he drops an album. Kanye was supposed to be putting out an album on Thursday night but it was nowhere to be found.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift dropped a surprise album instead, which is bound to top all charts. Swift’s release came full of merchandise sales, videos, and a full rollout that let us know she was prepared for this for a while, so we can dead any talk that this was an attempt to screw Yeezy is probably just speculation. However, Swift is probably more than happy with the results. No Kanye album. A bit of embarrassment. A chart-topper. Boom.

If you didn’t know, Kanye and Taylor have had a Cold War for more than a decade dating back to Yeezy interrupting her VMA speech. Then there was the matter of a leaked phone call and lyrics about Swift and a back-and-forth with Kim and we have a big old feud.

What’s wild is in 2020 Taylor is the one talking about tearing down Confederate statues and Kanye is the one buddying up to Trump.

What a time…

Twitter had all the jokes about Kanye and his failed album release. Hit the flip to see them all…

“Kanye didn’t drop the album. Imagine that”

“KANYE PUSHED BACK HIS ALBUM DATE BECAUSE TAYLOR JUST DROPPED ALBUM OF THE YEAR AND IS TRENDING WORLDWIDE “

“Kanye fans listening to white noise today and pretending that it’s the album”

“I thought Kanye West was releasing a album tonight guess he got scared because of #Folklore release”

“Kanye: in the middle of a legit breakdown

Taylor: “and they say I should move on, but you know I won’t” on a song clearly about Kanye and Kim after stealing the day Kanye was gonna drop an album.

RUTH. LESS.”

“people hating on Taylor Swift bc Kanye decided five seconds ago that he was releasing his album tomorrow meanwhile Taylor had already planned out a whole merch line, filmed a music video, and had a photo shoot for 8 unique deluxe albums”
