Close on the heels of releasing the 1989 (Taylor’s Version) record, Taylor Swift dropped “Bad Blood (Taylor’s Version),” featuring a re-recorded Kendrick Lamar verse.

“Bad Blood (Taylor’s Version)” features on the newly released deluxe edition of 1989.

“Watching Kendrick Lamar create and record his verses on the ‘Bad Blood’ remix was one of the most inspiring experiences of my life,” Swift wrote on social media. “I still look back on this collaboration with so much pride and gratitude, for the ways Kendrick elevated the song and the way he treats everyone around him. Every time the crowds on ‘The Eras Tour’ would chant his line ‘you forgive, you forget, but you never let it. go!’, I smiled.”

“The reality that Kendrick would go back in and re-record ‘Bad Blood’ so that I could reclaim and own this work I’m so proud of is surreal and bewildering to me,” she continued. “I’m overjoyed to say that the Bad Blood Remix (featuring Kendrick Lamar) is available everywhere on the 1989 Deluxe Edition.”
