Taylor Swift redirected seeming shade from Kim Kardashian to Kanye West with the release of her live mashup of "Mean" and Chainkeen"thanK you aIMee."
The live version — recorded at Wembley Stadium back in June — was shared on Twitter by Taylor Nation (Swift's in-house marketing team) as a digital album along with "The Prophecy (Long Story Short - Live from Lyon)." The new artwork has switched the title from "thanK you aIMee" to "thank You aimEe" or "KIM" to "YE." West has gone by several nicknames over the year including: Ye, Pablo, Yeezy, Yeezus and Mr. West.
"It really makes me think about how every time somebody talks s***," Swift said the night she performed the mashup in her blue flowy dress. It was the first time she'd ever performed Track 24 on the Eras Tour.
"It just makes me work even harder, and it makes me that much tougher," she said. "So it also makes me incredibly thankful for this."
What makes this even sweeter for Swift is her "Tortured Poets" album broke West's streak of 11 consecutive No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 when he surprise released his newest project "Vultures 2."

The rapper name-dropped the singer and her boyfriend in his song "Lifestyle (Demo)," saying “I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce."
Swift's two-track live album is only available for electronic download until 11:59 p.m. ET on Friday.
