Taylor Swift's highly anticipated tenth studio album, "Midnights," was ultimately released on October 21. She then released a "3am" version of "Midnights" with extra tunes.
The total number of tracks on the album, including the deluxe edition, is 20.
The album was released following weeks of promotion in which she unveiled song names and explained the purpose of some tracks. Taylor even offered a few lines to keep fans interested in the upcoming release.
Before the album's release, the "All Too Well" hitmaker claimed that it was inspired by "sleepless evenings" throughout her life, and that one of the key themes is "fantasizing over retribution."
Here are some of Taylor Swift's "Midnight" album tracks that appear to reference to her famous feuds.
Taylor Swift 'Midnights' Songs Hinting Feuds
However, the revenge motif does not dominate the record. Some of her songs seemed to allude to her feuds with other persons.
Fans should, however, take the interpretations with a grain of salt because no one, save Taylor, knows for certain who any of these songs are about.
Karma
Track 11 is "Karma," which begins with a reference to her ex-best friend, Karlie Kloss. It's one of her life's two most heartbreaking feuds.
Taylor and Karlie were inseparable from 2014 to 2016, however they split up once the former's "reputation" ended.
It has been reported that Karlie disclosed crucial information about Taylor to her manager, Scooter Braun, who is also Taylor's adversary.
"Karma" alludes to "talking s-t for the hell of it," which alludes to accusations that Karlie disseminated rumors about Taylor behind Taylor's back.
Vigilante Sh-t
Taylor Swift also brought up her historic feud with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.
Ye released "Famous" in 2016, which featured Taylor's name and referenced to having sex with her and making her famous. While Kanye stated that the "Lover" singer understood and accepted the lyrics ahead of time, she insisted she didn't agree with them.
Taylor's representative afterwards claimed that she had no idea she had been referred to as "that b-tch."
Later, Kim uploaded a video of a discussion between Kanye and Taylor during which they discussed the song and the latter granted her okay. It didn't, however, show him informing her about the "I made that b-tch famous" comment.
However, in the song "Vigilante S--t," she sung about a divorce between two persons in the music, naming an enemy's ex-wife and providing them with "cold hard facts," a clear parallel to Kim and Kanye's present position.
In one lyric, the 32-year-old sings about Kim Kardashian acquiring the mansion, kids, and pride following Kanye West's demise in recent years.
"You're not going to tell me this isn't about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West," one person tweeted, "We love, admire, and appreciate a petty Taylor Swift."
The same song, however, has been linked to Scooter Braun, with a suspicion that Taylor was engaged in exposing Scooter to his wife, Yael Cohen.
It's the former manager's recent split from his wife, amid reports of infidelity.
