On Sunday, Billboard reported that the “Bad Blood” singer’s newest album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” took the top spot for the 14th time, causing the “Flashing Lights” rapper’s latest project with Ty Dolla $ign, “Vultures 2,” to land at No. 2.

Swift and West’s longtime feud kicked off in 2009 when he took the mic from Swift as she received the best female video VMA award over Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It).”
The “Gold Digger” rapper, 47, said at the time, “Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish. But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!”
Then in 2016, the Chicago-born emcee rapped that he “might still have sex” with the singer and that he “made that bitch famous” on his song “Famous.”
