Sean Ono Lennon, the son of the legendary John Lennon and Yoko Ono, has recently made headlines by expressing his discomfort with a specific lyric of Taylor Swift’s.
This revelation came about during a social media exchange regarding comments made by former US President Donald Trump.
Trump openly stated his dislike for Swift, known for her catchy pop anthems like ‘Bejeweled.’
But it turns out, Lennon has his own personal beef with Swift.
Lennon himself has an impressive career in music.
He has been involved in various bands, including Cibo Matto, The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger, and The Claypool Lennon Delirium, along with his parents’ influential group, the Plastic Ono Band.
His solo career kicked off with the release of Into the Sun in 1998, followed by Friendly Fire in 2006.
Additionally, he has taken on production roles for artists such as Black Lips.
In previous interviews, Lennon has also discussed the importance of his father’s music and the legacy of his parents’ relationship.
“One thing that distinguishes my dad’s solo career is how personal his lyrics became. It is like a diary, and it is my duty to bring attention to my father’s music. Not just my duty to him, but a duty to the world,” he shared with The Times.
He expressed a deep commitment to preserving his father’s artistic legacy, stating: “With the world as it is now, people have forgotten so many things that I never imagined could be forgotten. I refuse to let that happen to this music — it means too much to me.”
And it appears his passion for music has now been offended by none other than Taylor Swift.
Earlier this month, the Republican presidential nominee posted: ‘I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT’ to Truth Social following the popstar’s official endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
In his tweet, Lennon made his stance clear, defending Swift from Trump’s comment.
The artist wrote on X, formerly Twitter: “Hating on Taylor Swift is not a good look.”
His defense of Swift was intriguing, especially given his admission that he is not particularly a fan of her music.
He followed up with another tweet, explaining that he struggles to recall any of her songs, admitting, “I can’t think of a single song, so I don’t really know if I like it or not.”
Despite his unfamiliarity with her discography, Lennon recognized Swift as a ‘uniquely successful American,’ emphasizing the importance of her achievements.
He articulated: “A young woman who has done things in a way that no one has done before her.” His comments reflected a broader appreciation for her impact on the music industry, indicating that Swift deserves respect and admiration for her success.
Continuing his thoughts, Lennon stated: “She is the kind of American that should be respected and in fact treasured. We need more, not less, Taylor Swifts in our world. People who thrive continually and consistently are exactly the kind of person both parties should embrace.”
In his critique of Trump’s comments, Lennon referred to the former president as an ‘old grumpy dude,’ suggesting that his anger towards Swift was unfounded and unappealing.
He expressed that a more dignified response from Trump could have been: “She is a brilliant young woman. I have a lot of respect for what she has accomplished. I don’t believe she knows the reality of the party she is endorsing.”
But the very next day, Lennon shared a tweet highlighting the specific Swift lyric that made him feel uneasy.
“I can’t believe I forgot this one but I actually remember a Taylor song called ‘Bad Blood’ (or something),” he noted.
He explained how the line that rhymed ‘mad love’ with ‘bad blood’ left him feeling uncomfortable, underscoring his honesty in acknowledging that he does know some of her work.
“I have nothing against her. I have a lot of respect for what she has accomplished. I certainly could never do what she does,” he concluded.
