Taylor Swift , who famously once said shed like to be excluded from the narrative of her decadelong feud with Kanye West , is retaking control in a new Rolling Stone profile .

The two recording titans have been locked in pop culture battle royale ever since West interrupted Swifts acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards to say she didnt deserve the trophy over Beyonc.

Their relationship improved some in the years that followed, but came to a screeching and snake-fueled finish when Wests wife Kim Kardashian released secret footage of a phone call in which Swift appeared to approve a lyric from Wests song Famous (I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ I made that bitch famous) that Swift had previously spoken against.

Swift, caught in what seemed like a lie, receded from the spotlight for months, then came back swinging with her album Reputation.
