There's at least one artist that Travis Kelce won't be listening to in the lead up to Super Bowl LIX.

On Wednesday, Feb. 5, During a media day with PEOPLE and other outlets ahead of Sunday's championship game, a reporter asked, "I know you're dating Taylor [Swift], but do you have any Kanye [West] on your hype playlist?" 

"No," Kelce, 35, swiftly answered before turning to answer another question from reporters.

The pointed query comes amid the Kansas City Chiefs tight end's girlfriend's storied history with the rapper, 47, dating back to 2009, when he interrupted her acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Since then, the two have had a very public feud, which included West name-checking Swift, 35, on the track "Famous" and the pop star addressing their back-and-forth on the 2017 album Reputation

Most recently, Swift seemingly addressed their past with The Tortured Poets Department song titled, "thanK you aIMee," which many interpreted as a call-out to West's ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, who also became involved in the drama when the reality star released an edited phone conversation between West and Swift in defense of her then-husband.  

Kelce, meanwhile, has been fielding questions about Swift during the media days with reporters as he prepares for the Chiefs' face off against the Philadelphia Eagles. 

On Monday, he appeared to act very coy about whether or not he will be popping the question to his girlfriend — who Jason Kelce confirmed to PEOPLE is attending — at halftime. When asked by a reporter if he planned to propose, Travis simply answered, “Wouldn’t you like to know,” as he smiled at the camera.
