Diplo has drawn massive fire from the Taylor Swift crowd after commenting on the pop singer’s new single in an interview with Rolling Stone. “They don’t want to listen to, like, ‘Look What You Made Me Do,'” he said. “That music doesn’t relate to them at all. I don’t think it ever did. They were only given that by radio and marketing budgets.”
It wasn’t long before the news got out and Diplo’s social media accounts were absolutely hammered with comments with the snake emoji. Remember, this is a guy who was once quoted saying “I’m scared for my life” after feuding with Swift.

Now Diplo is taking a step back and calling on all the Swifties to “calm down,” saying “All Too Well” is “on of my fav songs.” If this seems like a bit of back pedaling, you’re probably right. To be fair, “All Too Well” is lauded by many critics as the best song on Swift’s album RED, so at least Diplo has good taste.
