Look What You Made Me Do: Nicki Minaj tweets 'be humble' after Taylor Swift drops new single

Swift's latest release has been the centre of intense discussion as to who the song might be directed toward

Taylor Swift's new single "Look What You Made Me Do" has caused some pretty divisive reactions amongst music fans.

Though that's less, perhaps, to do with its actual musical content - which uses an interpolation from Right Said Fred's 1991 hit "I'm Too Sexy" - and more to do with who the song may supposedly be about.

Many have interpreted the song as a diss toward Kanye West, with their feud hitting a new peak when his wife, Kim Kardashian, release audio recordings that she said proved Swift had given West permission to reference her in his song "Famous".

Others have seen the song as a continuation of her feud with Katy Perry, already providing the inspiration for her 2014 single "Bad Blood". The timing, certainly, is interesting, since Perry only just released the video for her own alleged Swift diss track "Swish Swish".

Less than an hour after "Look What You Made Me Do" dropped, Nicki Minaj tweeted the simple message: "N**** sit down. Be humble."

Swift, of course, wasn't named in the subtle shade and the tweet is a possible reference to Kendrick Lamar's "HUMBLE", but Minaj's intention seems pretty clear - the Twitter users immediately replying with GIFs of an offended looking Swift, certainly, seemed set on their interpretation.

Swift and Minaj have their own history, with the latter having expressed frustration in 2015 that her wildly popular video for "Anaconda" didn't receive a nomination for Video of the Year at the MTV Video Music Awards, writing, "If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year."

Swift, again, wasn't directly named in Minaj's post, though she replied with: "I've done nothing but love & support you. It's unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot."

The pair did seem to make amends, performing together at the VMAs; that said, Minaj did just feature on Perry's "Swish Swish".

Swift wiped clean her social media pages last week, before building up hype for her new album Reputation through a series of video snippets of snakes.
