Is this Taylor Swift’s BIGGEST fan? Rapper ‘King Swiftie’ wears her friendship bracelets, believes she is one of the most influential artists of our time… and now he’s ready to collaborate with her

Taylor Swift could be entering her “hype man” era if her biggest fan has anything to do with it.

Flavor Flav – also known as ‘King Swiftie’ – has been complaining about the Love Story hitmaker for years and showing his endless support by attending her concerts and wearing her merchandise – and now he’s ready to collaborate.

The 64-year-old rapper and hype man, real name William Jonathan Drayton Jr, said he would drop everything to work on a song with the Grammy winner.

‘F**k yes! I would be in the studio in a minute,” he told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘I would like to work with her. I can lay down a trail at any time.”

The rapper previously labeled Taylor as one of the most influential artists who ever lived

He continued, “If she called me at 2:30 in the morning, I’d be up at 4:45. It’s all love.’

Flav has slowly cemented himself as one of Taylor’s biggest fans, aka “Swifties,” after expressing his admiration for her and brandishing her friendship bracelets and merchandise at countless events.

Just last month he praised her as one of the most “influential” artists of modern times.

Speaking to Billboard while dressed in an Eras tour-inspired hoodie, he enthused, “She is one of the most important and influential artists of our time.”

The New York native first met Taylor at iHeartRadio Music last March, where he managed to snap a selfie with the singer.

He then attended multiple shows on her Eras Tour, starting with her concert in Detroit in early June, before singing along at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles in August.

And unlike some fans, Flav was lucky enough to attend her premiere of Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour in Los Angeles in October.

At the time, Flav revealed that he ran into Taylor’s father Scott Swift in the lobby of the AMC theater at The Grove, which was using all 14 screens to play her movie simultaneously.

Flav shared their reunion on X, telling fans he was “King Swiftie.”

The rapper and hype man shook hands with Taylor’s father before exchanging friendship bracelets, with Scott giving him a colorful bracelet while Flav traded him an edgier all-black design that matched his outfit.

‘FLAVOR FLAV::: I made and traded the friendship bracelets with #PapaSwift,,, now you can just call him Flavor Flav,!!!’ he joked in a social media caption. ‘Congratulationz on changing the entertainment industry #TaylorSwift #tstheerastourfilm.’

During an interview with HOT 97’s Ebro in the Morning in January, he first revealed that it was he who was considered “King Swiftie.”

“Yes, I’m a Swiftie,” he said. “Not only that, but I now have a new name: ‘King Swiftie.'”

The Harder Than You Think MC has even gone so far as to reveal that his favorite song is Bad Blood.

“I mean, that’s about everyone’s relationships, or everyone’s families, or everyone’s friendships, it’s like, you know, ‘I used to be good friends, now you did something to me, now we have bad blood, look what you’re doing,” he explained.

Flav said he was “always a big fan of her music” after first meeting the Shake It Off singer-songwriter.

The legendary rapper attended the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in November, with a vest from 1989 (Taylor’s Version) as its theme.

Flav spoke to people at the event ‘every text she spits relates to life.’

More recently, Flav and Taylor ran into each other at the Grammys — and even posed for a few photos together.

“The discussion (at the Grammys) was about me congratulating her on all her success,” he told People.

“And I’m a big fan of hers, a big supporter of hers. By having her acknowledge that her “Swifties” fan base gave me a name, “King Swiftie.”

“I said, ‘Do you know they call me King Switfie?’ She said, “I know!” Yo, when I heard her say that, it was huge for me.”
