Roc-A-Fella cofounder Kareem “Biggs” Burke thinks Kanye West was wrong for his WHITE LIVES MATTER shirt.
“I condemn the shirt. That was born out of something else. Obviously, All Lives Matter. I think that’s what we should concentrate on, not the fact that somebody in Black Lives Matter may have stolen some money, and the movement may have taken a left turn somewhere,” he told TMZ.
Kanye has defended the shirt and says he made the shirt because “they do matter.”
Biggs continued, “We should focus on the lives that were lost and the people that were hurt and all the injustice that’s been done. To be honest, the t-shirt hurt, and all the injustice that’s been done.
“You know, I love Kanye, and that’s my brother. I’ve always supported him. But I just think that even if his mind state was that Black Lives Matter was something that was handled improperly, the genesis, where it came from, with George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin. The injustice is you know, we’ve got people that were killed, police brutality and so forth.”
