  DJ/Producer Calvin Harris slams ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift on Twitter after her reps confirmed that she wrote his hit single with Rihanna ‘This Is What You Came For’, under the pseudonym Nils Sjoberg according to Time.com.

  At first, the Scottish DJ began by commending Swift’s contribution to the song:

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

  He then turned to the pop singer’s team for the way in which the announcement has made:

  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 tweeted that he was hurt of Swift’s team attempt to bury him in a bid for publicity.

  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

  Rumors are spreading that the root of their breakup was the day the song was released. Calvin appeared on Ryan Seacrest’s radio program and Seacrest asked, “Will you do a collaboration with your girlfriend?” Calvin answered, “You know we haven’t spoken about it. I can’t see it happening though.”

  Despite that, Harris ended his rants on Twitter on a positive note:

  Please focus on the positive aspects of YOUR life because you've earned a great one

  God bless everyone have a beautiful day
