“Anybody pissed off, gotta make a drink to yawn,” he raps on the track, as seen in a fan-shot clip. “Now I’m K Kelly bitch / Now I’m Bill Cosby bitch / Now I’m Puff Daddy rich.” All three men mentioned by Ye—R. Kelly, Sean “Diddy” Combs, and Bill Cosby—have been convicted for or accused of sexual assault.

Ye also dropped a reference to his longtime arch nemesis Swift: “I mean, since Taylor Swift / Since I had a Rollie on the wrist / I’m the new Jesus, bitch.”
