Melbourne, July 19 : Legal troubles seem to be pouring in for Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian as they could face jail time because of their feud with Taylor Swift.

Us quoted a source, as saying, "Taylor's team believes that Kanye and Kim have quite clearly broken the law.

"They are on a mission to destroy Taylor but there could be serious consequences, because they made the phone call from California where it is illegal to tape calls without permission," the insider added.

In the track 'Famous,' which also features Rihanna, the 'Mercy' hit-maker is hear rapping: 'I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. I made that b*tch famous."

However, previously it was reported that the 38-year-old rapper, denied the accusation that he dissed Taylor in his latest album `The Life Of Pablo,' saying that they had an hour-long talk on the phone and she found the lyrics were funny and had no problem with him releasing the track.
