Kanye West moves on with his social platform posting as the rapper presently shares screenshots of a heated argument with Diddy. Ye recently wore “White Lives Matter” t-shirts at YZY SZN 9 Fashion Show, which has experienced criticism from fans and celebrities, including Diddy.

“I am not about to be addressing every last thing that’s going on in the world on the internet but the thing I do have to address is this ‘white lives matter’ t-shirt,” Diddy shared his opinion. “I’ve always been there and I will always support my brother Kanye as a freethinker. But the ‘white lives matter’ t-shirt, I don’t rock with it, you know what I’m saying? I’m not with it.”

After the comments from Puff, Ye shares his chat with the Bad Boy in which he condemned anyone getting between him and his business. 

“I didn’t like our convo. I’m selling these tees. Nobody gets in between me and my money,” Kanye sent in a message to Diddy. “As soon as I land we’ll meet face to face!!! send me a address,” replied Diddy in a text, which Kanye responded with “Ni**a F**k You, You Fed.”

“I’m just trying to talk to you as a black man. And I’m talking to you because this is hurting our people. Stop,” said Puff. “Anything you text I will post. I love you. And you guys are breaking my heart. I accept your apology in advance,” responds West.

Diddy reiterated his opinions regarding Kanye West’s contentious “White Lives Matter” shirt in a subsequent statement made by him on his Instagram post.

Diddy made it clear in a brief video posted to his Instagram account that while he continues to generally support Ye, the two are obviously at odds over this matter.  

“I’ve always been there and I will always support my brother Kanye as a free thinker,” he stated. “But the ‘White Lives Matter’ t-shirt? I don’t rock with it and what the press and what fashion is doing, thinking it’s a joke; when right now, all America has for us is poverty, incarceration and death.

“So before I can get to any other lives mattering,” Middy continued, “which all lives matter… That Black Lives Matter: don’t play with it. Don’t wear the shirt. Don’t buy the shirt. Don’t play with the shirt. It’s not a joke.”

The video was released the day after the owner of Bad Boy Records addressed the media hysteria surrounding Ye’s decision to include the t-shirt in the Yeezy collection at Paris Fashion Week (October 3). Diddy admitted during a conversation with The Breakfast Club that the action undermined the Black Lives Matter movement and slogan. But he insisted that Kanye be given some leeway in the matter.

“We don’t have to condemn Kanye or cancel him or have to go crazy,” he said, “but at the same time, you gotta understand your actions. The action of that, you know, I couldn’t put out the ‘Kanye Or Nothing’ t-shirt. I just couldn’t do it today, and I wanted to put out my first t-shirt tribute to Kanye, and I’m a still do it. I just need a couple of days to get over.”

Kanye West summarized a week’s worth of controversy during an interview with Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson on Thursday, October 6. The fashion designer covered a wide range of topics during the live conversation, including his support for former US President Donald Trump and his ex-friendship wife’s with the Clintons.

The 45-year-old rapper talked openly about his pro-life views while wearing a lanyard that included an image of an ultrasound of a baby. “It simply symbolizes life. I support life,” he said to Tucker. The reality that Black infants are currently being aborted more frequently than they are being born in New York City is what I care about, not how other people react to me.

Ye went on to discuss his friendship with Trump and the controversial MAGA hat. “My so-called friends/handlers around me told me if I said that I liked Trump that my career would be over. That my life would be over. They said stuff like people get killed for wearing a hat like that. They threatened my life.”

The father of four also mentioned how proud he was to have created the contentious “White Lives Matter” t-shirt for his Yeezy Season 9 line.

“My dad is an educated ex-Black Panther and he sent a text to me today. He said, ‘White Lives Matter hahaha.’ And I said I thought the shirt was a funny shirt. I thought the idea of me wearing it was funny. And I said, ‘Dad, why do you think it’s funny?’ And he said, ‘Just a Black man stating the obvious.’

Only after the interview, Kanye made reference to Kim Kardashian, his estranged wife, and her political views.

John Legend Specifies Real Cause Of Kanye West’s Departure

John Legend has revealed the real cause of his and Kanye West’s breakup.

The erstwhile allies fell out while Ye was running for president in 2020 due to their divergent political ideologies. The Grammy Award-winning musician spoke on the subject in a recent interview with The New Yorker and said his first remarks on their fraying friendship were misinterpreted.

“Yeah, what it got described as was, we stopped being friends because he supported Trump, which was a mischaracterization of what I said,” Legend explained. “That was kind of the Rupert Murdoch version of the story — it was all over the New York Post and Fox News.”

According to legend, West was particularly irked by his backing of Joe Biden, the current president of the United States, rather than him.

“What I was saying was that he was very upset with me that I didn’t support him running for President, and that was the real impetus for us having a strain in our friendship,” he continued. “I don’t know what will happen in the future, but he was very upset with me that I didn’t support him and I supported Joe Biden. It’s up to him whether he can get past that.”

Kanye West shared a similar story when he appeared at Drink Champs  last year, he said “Both John Legend and Big Sean, when I ran for office, got used quick by the Democrats to come at they boy that actually changed their life. And that’s some sell-out shit. And I don’t rock with neither of them.”

Kanye West Vs. Adidas: How It All Started

Kanye West Vs. Adidas: How It All Started

Kanye West Vs. Adidas: How It All Started

Kanye West is a person who is steadfast in his pursuit of his goals. Ye was made fun of when he first declared his desire to work in fashion years ago. There were others who believed the odds were against him and that he could never succeed in that industry. Ye ultimately disproved everyone by delivering two wildly popular sneakers for Nike and going on to become a billion-dollar brand with Yeezy.

He believed that he wasn’t receiving enough royalties when he was with Nike. Additionally, he was very apparent that Nike wasn’t allowing him enough creative freedom. Ye left after the Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Red October” debut and eventually joined Adidas. Since then, Kanye has released a variety of distinctive sneakers that have been purchased by tens of millions of people all over the world.

On August 2nd, during Yeezy Day, Kanye’s irritation with Adidas became apparent for the first time. Although Kanye wasn’t very active on social media at the time, he felt belittled by Adidas’ yearly Yeezy sale.

‘Adidas came up with the idea for Yeezy Day without getting my approval, then they brought back older styles without getting my approval, chose colors and gave them names without getting my approval, hired people who worked for me without getting my approval, stole my colorways without getting my approval, stole my styles and material approaches without getting my approval, hired a gm of Yeezy without getting my approval, took production talent and scattered it throughout Adidas Originals without getting my approval’ he revealed to his followers.

Courtney Cox Responds After Kanye West Says “Friends” Isn’t Funny

Kanye found himself responding to a post exposing Kim Kardashian’s purported health difficulties in a post falsely linked to the Graduation rapper in the midst of his never-ending dispute with Adidas and Gap. In response to a photoshopped tweet that went viral and claimed that Ye deemed Friends unfunny, Ye labeled the post unfunny.

“I know you guys gonna be disappointed but I actually didn’t write the tweet that said ‘Friends wasn’t funny either’ but I wish I had,” he said. “I’d love to know who thought of that. I like to post comments,” he added before lauding comics like Larry David, Dave Chappelle, and Kevin Hart (in Jumanji)

It appears that Courtney Cox was made aware of the remarks since she responded to Ye in a video clip posted on Instagram. Before visiting Kanye’s Instagram page and finding his comments on Friends, Cox, who portrayed Monica, is seen dancing to the song “Heartless.” She finally decides to stop the music and go. “I bet the old Kayne thought Friends was funny,” Cox captioned the image while mispronouncing his name.

It’s unknown if any other Friends cast members heard about Kanye’s remarks. Regardless of what he thinks of the show, the cast still makes a respectable living via syndication till today.

Kanye West is still at battle with Adidas. The DONDA star has been attacking the streetwear company and its entire employees on Instagram for the past week for allegedly stealing designs from his Yeezy brand and profiting from it. 

On Saturday, September 3, Ye launched his most recent tirade against Adidas, focusing on Daniel Cherry III, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the company. ” VENTURE CAPITALISTS WHOSE ONLY ADVENTURE CAPITALISM. CANNOT CREATE SO THEY TRY TO OUT COUNT THE CREATIVES,” he stated. “I GUARANTEE YOU’LL HAVE TO RELOCATE BEFORE I’M LEGALLY FINISHED WITH YOU,” he continued. 

But the scathing tirade didn’t stop there. Kanye focused his verbal assault against the company on Tuesday (Sept. 6), saying, “I COULD HEAR THE JOY IN MY TEAMS VOICES TODAY. ADIDAS DON’T WANT NO MORE SMOKE. THE MOVIE CREDIT’S ARE ROLLING. THIS WAR WASN’T ABOUT MONEY.” 

The Grammy Award-winning artist ended his tirade with a warning for his upcoming victim. “Now it’s time for Gap,” he wrote, and then his team’s greeting, “Dear Ye, Your legal team advises that we wait another 10 days before posting anything on Gap.”

John Legend Discusses Why He Broke Up With Kanye West

John Legend and Kanye West are Long-time friends. They once worked together, most notably on the song “Blame Game” from Kanye West’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Their relationship has soured as a result of recent disagreements. In a recent interview, Legend added additional detail to his previous remarks regarding his former friendship with Kanye, who he has been quite open about in private.

According to legend, their deteriorating relationship was a result of more than simply their opposing political views. The soul singer claimed that his conflicts with Kanye went beyond politics in an interview with the New Yorker published this past weekend.

Kanye backed Trump and then his own ticket in 2020, whereas John Legend was a staunch backer of Joe Biden. The “All of Me” singer admitted that while this didn’t improve their friendship, the political disagreements itself were the icing on the cake.

“I don’t feel like politics should be everything in your relationships, and your relationships with people shouldn’t only be determined by who they voted for,” Legend told the New Yorker. “But I do believe that certain things you believe in are indicators of your character, and obviously that will affect your friendships.”

He continued, “I don’t want to live a life where politics is the only factor that determines who can be my friend and who can’t. “”But values matter and character matters and moral compass matters.”

Legend continued by claiming that West viewed his decision not to back his own presidential candidacy as a betrayal. He added that if Ye wanted, he would be ready to keep their friendship intact.
