Kanye West made a surprising move by unfollowing everyone on Instagram except Taylor Swift.

The rapper, 47, shared a screenshot on his Instagram Stories on February 1 showing that he was only following the “Karma” singer, 35, and no one else. He also shared the news via X with the side-eye emoji. In addition to his unfollowing spree, Ye posted a photo on Instagram of a Grammy award and tagged several people, including Taylor.

Fans were understandably confused and many of them sounded off in the comments section.

“I gulped so hard when i saw u following taylor,” wrote one Instagram user.

Another person asked, “So nobody is gonna talk about the Taylor Swift tag?”

The “Gold Digger” artist has yet to publicly speak about his reasons to only follow the Miss Americana star, but both Ye and Taylor are nominated for awards at the 2025 Grammys being held on February 2. Ye is up for Best Rap Song with “Carnival,” while Taylor received nominations in several categories including Record of the Year, Album of the Year and more.

Taylor and the “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” rapper have been in a longstanding feud that initially began at the MTV VMA Awards in 2009. The “Exile” artist won the award for Best Female Video, beating out Beyoncé, Pink and more. In the midst of her acceptance speech, Ye crashed the stage and took the microphone from her hands.

“Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish,” Ye told the shocked crowd. “But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!”

From there, the two continued to have several considerate ups and downs over the years, but things came to a head when Ye’s now-ex-wife Kim Kardashian got involved. Ye released his song “Famous” in 2016 which included the lyrics, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ Why? I made that bitch famous.”

While Ye claimed that Taylor gave him permission to use the lyrics, the “Blank Space” singer’s rep denied the allegations and added that Taylor took issue with the line “I made that bitch famous.”

In July 2016, Kim shared audio recordings of an alleged conversation between Ye and Taylor where he read the lyric stating “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex” and she seemingly approved.

“She totally knew that that was coming out. She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t,” Kim said during a June 2016 interview with GQ. “I swear, my husband gets so much s–t for things [when] he really was doing proper protocol and even called to get it approved.”

However, Taylor later claimed she was never aware of the line using the phrase “ that bitch” and didn’t approve of it.

When Taylor was named Time’s Person of the Year in 2023, she opened up about how much the feud with Ye and Kim affected her.

​​“Make no mistake, my career was taken away from me. You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar,” Taylor explained. “That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls. I pushed away most people in my life because I didn’t trust anymore. I went down really, really hard.”
