During an interview with The Breakfast Club, Diddy was asked about Kanye West’s new WHITE LIVES MATTER shirt but refused to speak badly about the rapper.
“Kanye, my boy, is a super, super, super free thinker. A lot of times what he means is like misconstrued and sometimes just… I’m not making excuses,” he said. “I’m just saying that if he did it, that’s the way he thinks, and so I understand white lives do matter but it’s not that. That was our slogan. That wasn’t our slogan to go share with nobody else. That’s the only message.”
Kanye has refused to apologize for the shirt. Several celebrities have called him out over his actions but he doesn’t care.
He continued: “We don’t have to condemn Kanye or cancel him or have to go crazy, 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.”
