Jack Antonoff Slams Kanye West While Praising Taylor Swift's Songwriting Prowess

Jack Antonoff took a jab at Kanye West while slamming those questioning Taylor Swift's songwriting abilities.

Antonoff also revealed that he doesn't mind fighting his dear friend Taylor's enemies too, especially Kanye West.

Jack Antonoff Raves On Taylor Swift's Songwriting Abilities

Like any other friend, Jack Antonoff can be especially protective, especially for Taylor Swift.

Speaking to The Los Angeles Times, Antonoff says he's "a little bitch sometimes."

"But you come after my friend Taylor; you're toast to me," he warned before jabbing those questioning Swift's songwriting. "[It] is like challenging someone's faith in God. You just don't go there."

Very recently, Taylor Swift made history as the first artist to have won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year four times. She surpassed Frank Sinatra, Paul Simon, and Stevie Wonder. Swift won it for "Fearless," "1989," "Folklore," and "Midnights."

However, Swift's win has been widely questioned, especially by people on social media, who believed that SZA's "SOS" should have won instead because of the diversity of the body of work, among other criteria.

As he talked about Swift, Antonoff gave a straight punch to one of Swift's biggest enemies - Kanye West.

Jack Antonoff Doesn't Care About Kanye West?

Elsewhere in The Los Angeles Times interview, Jack Antonoff described Kanye West as someone who "just needs his diaper changed so badly."

When asked if he's not holding back on roasting someone whom he might want to work with in the future, Antonoff admitted that he had tossed that idea into the trash in the past already.

"It's been a long time since I would've taken Kanye's call," he quipped. "I'm so incredibly bored when someone doesn't have the sauce anymore, so they go elsewhere to shock. It's just a remarkable waste of space."

This wasn't the first time Antonoff did not mince his words when talking about the embattled rapper. When Kanye West announced the release date of his trilogy album "Vultures," the release date of the second one coincided with the release date of Antonoff's band Bleachers' self-titled album - Mar. 8, 2024.

"Kanye on bleachers release date is hilarious little crybaby bitch," he tweeted on Twitter/X.

In the past, Antonoff has also slammed West for his antisemitic remarks, calling him "abhorrent" and "irresponsible."
