The song itself is written by an artist that many would consider pretty wild due to some strange statements and very public controversies such as running for president, his current pleas for his ex-wife, and famously his controversy with Taylor Swift. Famous came about after his controversy with Taylor Swift that occurred at the VMA awards after he interrupted her speech to say that another artist should have won. Kanye\u2019s song lyrics say \u201cI feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that bitch famous\u201d claiming that his controversy with Taylor at the VMAs is what made her famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This song is wild in that it sparked up controversy and lots of media coverage and comes from an artist that is also considered wild. \u201cFamous\u201d sparked a very public feud between the Kardashians (Kanye\u2019s previous family) and her, leading to many celebrities and viewers picking sides. What I find wild is how a song lyric led to a very popular feud that got everyday people (non-celebrities) invested in this drama. It\u2019s also very wild to make claims that another very famous artist became famous because of Kanye. Another very wild thing that occurred in this song was it\u2019s music video. The video featured lookalikes of multiple celebrities, including Taylor Swift that were nude in a bed with Kanye. I believe it\u2019s very wild to create a video that includes wax models of other celebrities while also dissing said celebrities. The song itself I don\u2019t believe is wild in the way it was created and sounds but instead due to the effects that occurred due to the release of the song.<br><br>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=p7FCgw_GlWc <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Stephanie Wilhite<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Famous by Hip Hop\/Rap artist Kanye West in the album The Life of Pablo is a song I would consider wild.
