Brazillian rapper Thiago Veigh announced the release of a new single, TAYLOR, on April 29, 2025, inspired by billionaire pop icon Taylor Swift. He shared the news via his official X account with an image showing a veiled version of Taylor Swift’s face.

To promote the single, Veigh also changed his official Instagram account profile picture to the veiled image and started a countdown to the song’s release. The song dropped on YouTube on Wednesday, April 30, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. ET.

Fans of the "Shake It Off" singer weren't too excited about the news, claiming he just wanted to use Taylor for clout. They even went as far as tagging Taylor's public relations executive, Tree Paine. However, Paine's response was to follow the Brazilian rapper on X, causing fans to speculate that Veigh had gotten Swift's approval.

TAYLOR is a rap trap song by Veigh featuring Supernova ENT. It was written by Veigh and produced by Bvga Beatz, Galdino, Nagalli, Honaiser, and Lodoni. The song discusses the rapper's relationship with his fans. The second verse reads:

“Registered Rolex from London
My fans are like Taylor's fans
I became an international artist
Someone needs to let my fandom know
I know I'm a handsome guy
You freak I won't follow you
If you wanna sit in my lap
I wanna see a picture with no filter.”
