Ross's praise came hot on the heels of a recent jab from Drake's "Push Ups," where he playfully critiqued Kendrick Lamar's collaboration with Swift on "Bad Blood (Remix)." Drake's lyrics humorously highlighted the commercial nature of such partnerships, but Ross's support seemed unwavering.

This isn't the first time Ross has shown support for Swift. In a February episode of Logan Paul’s “IMPAULSIVE” podcast, Ross defended Swift against Super Bowl conspiracy theories, stating, "That's my girl. She should perform at the Super Bowl, too."

In addition to Ross, Ice Spice, another prominent figure in the music industry, also showed her support for Swift's new album. Ice Spice reposted Swift’s album on her Instagram Story, further solidifying the support from the hip-hop community.

Swift and Ice Spice have a history of collaboration, notably teaming up for "Karma (Remix)" from Swift's previous album. Reflecting on their collaboration, Swift expressed how natural it felt to work with Ice Spice. 

Collaborating with Ice Spice on 'Karma' was one of the most natural things. She reached out through her team, just kind of saying, 'Hey, you know, Ice has been a big fan of Taylor’s since she was a little kid; we’d love to collaborate if that was ever something that came about.'
