Taylor Swift has renamed her diss track to seemingly shade Kanye West.

The pop star has renamed her song thanK you aIMee, an alleged reference to Kim Kardashian, for a new live version of the track.

When the song was originally released as part of her Tortured Poets Department album in April, fans noticed the letters K, I and M were all capitalised, leading to speculation it was about the reality star.

On Thursday, Taylor released a live version of the song, featuring a mash-up with her 2010 track Mean, and fans immediately noticed that she had changed the capitalisation in the title.

The new version of the song is titled thank You aimEe, apparently in reference to the rap star, who goes by the name Ye.

Taylor and Kanye have been locked in a long-running feud since the rapper interrupted her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV VMAs. The feud culminated in 2016 with Kanye's then-wife Kim sharing footage of Taylor's phone call with Kanye discussing his song Famous. Taylor accused her of "falsely paint(ing) as a liar" before taking a step back from the spotlight.

When she performed the mash-up in London in June as part of her Eras Tour, the 34-year-old gave an insight into the meaning behind the diss track.

"It really makes me think about how every time someone talks s**t, it just makes me work even harder and it makes me even tougher. So, it also makes me incredibly thankful for those people," she said.

This week, the Lover singer claimed victory over the rapper, whose 11 previous albums have all debuted at the top of the Billboard charts. His new album Vultures 2 failed to make it to the top as the number one spot was taken by Taylor's latest album.
