Pop star Katy Perry and Chicago drill rapper Chief Keef have surprised fans by turning their old online feud into a music collaboration. The two artists recently released a remix of Perry’s Prism track “Legendary Lovers (Save Me),” and the song is now streaming on music platforms worldwide.
The collaboration has caught attention because the artists were once involved in a public Twitter argument back in 2013. At the time, Katy Perry had reacted to Chief Keef’s song online and questioned the track. Chief Keef later responded with controversial and vulgar comments, which quickly became a widely discussed moment on social media.
Years later, the situation has taken a very different turn. In 2014, Chief Keef sampled Perry’s original “Legendary Lovers” track in his song “Save Me.” Over time, that version gained attention online again, especially after clips using the song started trending on TikTok. By April, reports suggested that the track was receiving more than 200,000 daily streams, bringing fresh interest to the music.
The growing popularity of the song eventually led to a new collaboration between the two artists. Fans also noticed Katy Perry and Chief Keef appearing together in matching hoodies while promoting the remix, which added to online discussions around the release.

Social media reactions to the collaboration have been mixed but highly active. Some fans found the pairing unexpected and entertaining, with many joking about Katy Perry appearing like a fan of Chief Keef. Rapper Sexyy Red also joined the conversation online and playfully warned Perry about being around Chief Keef’s crew.
Music listeners have shared different opinions about the remix itself. Some praised the mix of pop music and Chicago drill style, calling it creative and refreshing. Others felt that the newly added verse sounded disconnected from the original track. Despite the mixed reactions, the collaboration has become a major talking point online because of the artists’ history and the unexpected way their old conflict turned into a musical partnership.
The remix also highlights how older songs can find new popularity through social media platforms like TikTok, where revived trends often introduce past music to younger audiences and create fresh streaming success years later.
