Days after Kanye West expressed that “White Lives Matter” through t-shirts, Diddy visited The Breakfast Club and gave his opinion on the situation that had the innanet in shambles.
When the 52-year-old shared his thoughts, he made it clear that Kanye was his “boy” and a “free thinker.”
My boy is a super, super, super free thinker,” Diddy said. “And a lot of times, what he means is, like, misconstrued, you know what I’m saying? I understand white lives do matter, but it’s not that.
He continued:
[‘Black Lives Matter’] was our slogan. That wasn’t our slogan to go share with nobody else … Because right now, we’re the ones that are dying, that are incarcerated, that are left in poverty.
The mogul also stated people didn’t have to “condemn” or “cancel” Kanye.
As previously stated, Boosie slammed Kanye when photos of the shirts surfaced online. Boosie stated:
@kanyewest AFTER ALL WE BEEN THROUGH AS A RACES YOU PUT THIS DISRESPECTFUL S**T ON!! U GIVES NO F**K ABOUT HOW BLACKS HAVE DIED N SUFFERED TO THE HANDS OF THE WHITE MAN N U SAY BUSH DONT LIKE BLACK PEOPLE.. REALLY “N***A
At Kanye’s show, he was seen sitting on the floor with a shirt with the phrase on the back.
The father of four was also seen in a photo with Republican commentator Candace Owens wearing the same shirt.
Both posts garnered over 17,000 comments collectively. Real Housewives Of Potomac star Dr. Wendy Osefo stepped in, writing, “All skin folk ain’t kinfolk!!!”
Roomies, what do you think of this?
