LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Taylor Swift recently took to social media to share a sweet tribute for record producer and longtime friend Jack Antonoff, a new exclusive release of the track 'Sweeter Than Fiction.'

The song, which originally appeared on the soundtrack for 'One Chance' in 2013, was co-written by both Swift and Antonoff.

"There you’ll stand ten feet tall, I will say 'I knew it all along' [teary faced smile emoji] This song has always made me think of my friend Jack," wrote Swift, adding, "It was the first song we made together and watching him challenge himself and make beautiful art over the years has been the thrill of a lifetime."

"How can he be 6 years older than me and also somehow still be my precocious young son? We may never know," gushed the pop sensation.

She concluded, "'Sweeter Than Fiction (My Version)' is now available exclusively at Target on Tangerine vinyl." Swift also shared two photos with Antonoff, with one of the images showing them sharing a hug.

They both have such a beautiful friendship!"

Swifties believe Taylor Swift's tribute to Jack Antonoff is in response to him receiving hate from some fans

While several Swifties gushed over Taylor Swift's friendship with Jack Antonoff, many felt that the pop star's tribute was in response to the hate the latter allegedly received from some of her fans.

As reported by Newsweek, some 'Swifties' criticized Antonoff in the past and claimed that he had taken Swift's songs and made them all have a similar pop sound.

Irrespective of the criticism, the duo continued to be best friends ever since meeting in 2012 and have collaborated on 10 albums along with a few one-off singles.

"This has got to be Blondie's way of telling people hating on Jack to stoooop. It's ridiculous that she had to do this," wrote a person on Reddit.

Another opined, "The Jack hate is so forced especially from the fans who blamed him for Style and New Romantics. He didn’t even produce those song which they would know if they even bother to read the credits. This is her subtly telling swifties to STFU."

"i feel like taylor is defending jack from unnecessary and BASELESS hate like this," commented a Swiftie.

One more said, "I was kind of surprised by all the hate on Jack's production! I feel like everything he touches turns to gold, he works with so many artists I love. And all the vaul tracks were amazing!!!"

"Good for her, I'm glad she's supporting her friend! The hate is ridiculous. I say it's hate because it's gone beyond fair criticism. I saw people blaming him for songs he didn't even produce," mentioned a person.

They added, "Some people just say this stuff because he's the popular person to dislike right now, and they know posting about him will get them clout. Mainly on Twitter and TikTok."
