Kanye West launches into another unhinged anti-Semitic rant as he begs Trump to free Diddy, claims rapper’s incarceration is racist and doubles down on claim ‘slavery is a choice’

Kanye West launched into another unhinged late night rant on Thursday as he begged President Trump to free Diddy from prison and repeated his outrageous comments that ‘slavery is a choice.’ 

The rapper, 47, was nearly cancelled in 2022 for making a series of anti-Semitic remarks, that he later apologised for, claiming it was not his ‘intention to hurt or demean’ the Jewish community. 

Yet in a rambling U-turn, Kanye made another racist remark as he penned a series of rambling tweets on X, claiming that ‘white and Jewish people tell you what to do.’ 

He began his rant by addressing incarcerated rapper Diddy, 55, who has been locked up at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center since he was arrested last year on sex trafficking, racketeering and prostitution charges.  Diddy has vehemently denied all of the allegations and charges against him. He has been denied bail multiple times. 

Addressing the disgraced rapper by his former stage name, Puff Daddy, Kanye tweeted: ‘FREE PUFF’. 

Half an hour later, he returned to the microblogging site to accuse celebrities of leaving Diddy to ‘rot’, penning: ‘ALL THESE CELEBRITY N****S AND B*****S IS P***Y YALL A WATCH OUR BROTHER ROT AND NEVER SAY S**T.’

Kanye then turned his attention to another disgraced rapper, Chris Brown, who has a history of violence against women, including assaulting ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.

He tweeted: ‘WE ALL WATCHED THEM TRY TO CANCEL CHRIS BROWN AND AINT NOBODY DO NOTHING I WAS P***Y THEN TOO CHRIS BROWN ITS TIL THE WHEELS FALL OFF.’ 

Seven minutes later, in a seemingly unrelated tweet, he repeated the shocking claims he made in 2018, writing: ‘SLAVERY IS A CHOICE’. 

Appearing to go back to defending Diddy, he went on: ‘THEY TRYNA PROVE A POINT AND YALL KNOW THAT YALL F***ING KNOW THAT AND SITTING LAUGHING AT THE F***ING INTERNET ON INSTAGRAM THIS MAN GAVE HIS LIFE TO US THIS MY IDOL THIS MY HERO.’

Kanye, who was receiving plenty of backlash from fans amid his tirade, then claimed he had nothing left to lose, writing: ‘WHAT YALL GONE DO CANCEL MY SNEAKER DEAL CANCEL MY RECORD DEAL FREEZE MY ACCOUNTS F**K ALL YALL N****S SLAVERY IS A CHOICE IM SPEAKING MY MIND NOW I AINT EDITING S**T AGAIN EVER.’ 

The rapper famously lost a series of brand deals in 2022 after his first anti-Semitic tirade, with GAP ripping Kanye merchandise from their stores, Universal dropping him and Adidas terminating its multi-million dollar partnership with the rapper.  

Likening his situation to Diddy’s Kanye referenced the rapper, real name Sean Combs, being ousted as the frontman of global alcoholic drinks giant, Diageo.

Using racist slurs and yet again targeting the Jewish community, he went on: ‘ALL YOU PLEEEEEASE COME AT ME THATS HOW WE SPOT THE K***S LET THESE WHITE PEOPLE AND JEWISH PEOPLE TELL YOU WHAT TO DO AND SAY F**K DIAGEO AND F**K ALL YALL N****S IN ADVANCE.’ 

Kanye then vowed to make money for Diddy by selling a clothing line collaborating his Yeezy brand with Diddy’s Sean John brand, insisting they would ‘split the profits 50/50.’ 

Kanye launched into an unhinged rant littered with racist remarks as he called for Diddy to be freed from prison 

Kanye then turned his attention to another disgraced rapper, Chris Brown , who has a history of violence against women, including assaulting ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 

As well as posting a series of controversial tweets on X, he also used his Instagram account to share his support for Diddy, tagging President Donald Trump in a post that read: ‘FREE DIDDY’ (Kanye and Trump pictured in 2016) 

West urged authorities to release Diddy amid sex trafficking allegations – days after West pulled a stunt in which his partner Bianca Censori bared her nearly nude body at the Grammys 

Claiming that Diddy’s downfall was the result of racism, he went on: ‘JUST FOR CLARITY THEY TYRING TO MAKE AN EXAMPLE OUT OF PUFF ME AND MY BROTHER HAD OUR ISSUES BUT THESE WHITE PEOPLE TRYING TO USE PUFF TO SCARE N****S IM NEITHER SCARED NOR BRAVE THIS JUST ME.’

As well as posting a series of controversial tweets on X, he also used his Instagram account to share his support for Diddy, tagging President Donald Trump in a post that read: ‘FREE DIDDY’. 

Thanking Kanye for his support, Diddy reposted Kanye’s tweets about their clothing collaboration, taking to Instagram from behind bars to write: ‘Thank you to my brother @Ye’ and sharing a link to Yeezy. 

Kanye also baffled fans as he appeared to reference Justin Bieber while making unsubstantiated claims about Diddy’s finances. 

He shared: ‘I JUST FOUND OUT THAT PUFF IS NOT ALLOWED TO MAKE OR COLLECT MONEY WHILE HE’S LOCKED UP SO I’MA SEND HIS HALF OF THE MONEY TO JUSTIN.’  

Fans have shared concerns about Justin’s wellbeing as his relationship with former mentor Diddy came under scrutiny amid the rapper’s arrest.

Kanye’s rant comes days after Diddy’s attorneys told Dailymail.com that the entertainer ‘is confident he will prevail in court.’

They shared a statement on Wednesday that read: ‘No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted, or sex trafficked anyone – man or woman, adult or minor.

‘We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason. Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to find the truth, and Mr. Combs.’

Prosecutors in Diddy’s federal case say the music mogul used blackmail and violence in his efforts to silence victims. 

Among the claims made against the entertainer is that he persuaded women to participate against their will in group sexual exhibitions referred to as ‘Freak Offs.’ 

The Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down performer remains in federal custody nearly five months after his September 16 arrest in Manhattan in connection with sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

Diddy, who is also charged with transportation to engage in prostitution, has made a trio of attempts in vain to be granted bail, amid concerns from the court he would attempt to flee or tamper with his case.

Prior to his arrest he was in the headlines for much of 2024 year after raids on multiple properties in March; and video of him assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie surfacing on CNN in May. 

Amid Diddy’s legal issues, Kanye’s social media followers on both X/Twitter and Instagram had a predominantly negative reaction to his remarks.

West also tagged President Donald Trump, writing, ‘PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF’

West, pictured in the Oval Office in 2018, appealed to Trump to release Diddy from custody 

West also announced on social media he was selling Sean John merch, with half of the proceeds going to Combs 

West said he and Combs ‘DISCUSSED’ the business endeavor ‘BEFORE THEY LOCKED HIM UP’

On his Yeezy website, West featured a series of Sean John shirts – in red, white, blue, black and gray – for $20 apiece in what he said was a business arrangement between him and Combs discussed prior to Combs’ incarceration last fall

West said Thursday, ‘I’m selling the Sean John collaboration that me and my brother spoke about before they locked him up we splitting the profits 50/50’

In addition to his sentiments on Combs, West rattled off a number of controversial tweets Thursday evening, deleting some shortly after 

West’s social media followers on both X/Twitter and Instagram had a predominantly negative reaction to the suggestion to free the embattled music mogul from his ongoing incarceration
