Calvin Harris has acknowledged that Taylor Swift penned the lyrics for “This Is What You Came For,” but won’t tolerate getting smeared in the press.

Calvin Harris Vs Taylor Swift

Earlier this week, news broke that Swift had written “This Is What You Came For,” for which she was credited with a semi-known pseudonym. Swifts’ team confirmed the reports, and then stories started to run that included quotes from an unnamed source that claimed Swifts’ relationship with Harris soured after he had dismissed the idea of working with her in an interview.

On Twitter Wednesday, Harris stated that in addition to penning the lyrics, Swift sang on “This Is What You Came For,” though he wrote the music and produced it.

And she sings on a little bit of it too ?
Amazing lyric writer and she smashed it as usual https://t.co/vW3yGOIJit

I wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and cut the vocals though. And initially she wanted it kept secret, hence the pseudonym

Harris went on to blame Swift for the spin hitting the headlines that painted him in a bad light. Not stopping there, Harris was sure to note her new relationship with Tom Hiddleston, and, perhaps most surprisingly, her long-rumored feud with fellow pop star Katy Perry.

Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to try and make ME look bad at this stage though ?

I figure if you’re happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex bf down for something to do

I know you’re off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy ETC but I’m not that guy, sorry. I won’t allow it
