In a jaw-dropping turn of events just days before the Grammy Awards, Kanye West has set social media on fire by making an unexpected move—he’s now only following Taylor Swift on Instagram and has even tagged her in a Grammy tribute post.

The shocking action has sent fans into a frenzy, reviving the long-standing tension between the two music icons. Could this be a sign of a truce, a publicity stunt, or something even bigger?
Kanye’s Cryptic Instagram Move
Late last night, fans noticed that Kanye had unfollowed everyone on Instagram, except for Taylor Swift—a move that immediately sparked speculation.
To add even more fuel to the fire, Kanye then posted a black-and-white tribute to the Grammys, featuring an old photo of himself holding multiple awards, and tagged Taylor Swift directly in the caption.
“Real artists never die. See you at the Grammys.” – Kanye West
This unexpected move has left fans and industry insiders divided—is Kanye extending an olive branch, or is he trolling Taylor ahead of music’s biggest night?
Fans React: “What Is Kanye Up To?”
Social media exploded with reactions, with fans of both artists trying to decode Kanye’s intentions:
- Swifties were quick to warn Taylor, saying she should “stay away from the drama” and not fall for another public stunt.
- Kanye’s supporters, on the other hand, believe he’s either acknowledging Taylor’s success or planning a surprise collaboration.
- Others think this is just classic Kanye chaos, meant to steal attention ahead of the Grammys.
A popular comment on X (formerly Twitter) summed up the confusion:
“Kanye West following ONLY Taylor Swift before the Grammys? What timeline are we even living in?”
A Complicated History
Kanye and Taylor’s rocky relationship dates back to the infamous 2009 MTV VMA incident, when Kanye interrupted Taylor’s acceptance speech, declaring that Beyoncé deserved the award instead.
Despite brief moments of reconciliation, the feud escalated again in 2016, when Kanye released Famous with the controversial line:
“I made that b*** famous.”*
Taylor publicly called him out, and the two have never fully patched things up—making this latest move all the more bizarre.
