Kanye West throws even more shade than originally thought in his new album.

The rapper debuted tracks from the record, The Life of Pablo, at his Yeezy Season 3 fashion show Thursday, during New York Fashion Week. In one, titled "Famous," Kanye raps how he allegedly made Taylor Swift famous and says he feels the two "might still have sex." The singer made headlines in 2009 when her acceptance speech at the MTV VMAs was interrupted by the rapper, who later apologized. She and her friends were not amused by Kanye's song.

On Friday, Kanye revealed the names of several new tracks featured in his album and said the record would be released that day. He dropped one song, "30 Hours," on Soundcloud. It references an "ex" and his "wifey." He does not name them.

"My ex says she gave me the best years of her life / I saw a recent picture of her, I guess she was right," he raps.

Kanye is married to Kim Kardashian, who attended his fashion show with their daughter, North West, 2, and other family members. One of his most famous exes is Amber Rose, who he dissed last month while getting into a Twitter battle with her most recent ex, Wiz Khalifa.

"I wake up, all veggies no eggs / I hit the gym, all chest no legs / Yep, then I made myself a smoothie / Yeah, then me and wifey make a movie," West raps on "30 Hours."

Kanye had included the track on previous released track lists for his new album, which was previously titled SWISH and WAVES, as seen in photos of his notes posted on Twitter over the past month.

The record also contains the song "I Hit it First," which mentions Kim's ex Ray J.
