Country music star Zach Bryan deactivated his X account and issued an apology on Instagram for a tweet he made about Taylor Swift and Kanye West. In a now-deleted post, Bryan tweeted "eagles over chiefs" and followed with "Kanye over Taylor," which received backlash from Swift fans. Bryan explained in a series of Instagram Stories that he was "drunkenly" comparing two records and that it came out wrong. He clarified that he has a deep appreciation for Taylor's music and hopes to explain this to her in the future. Bryan admitted that he was going through a hard time and was projecting a little with his tweet. He concluded by advising others not to drink and tweet. This incident is just a small part of the history between Taylor Swift and Kanye West, who have had a public feud dating back to West interrupting Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009.
