Kanye West comes to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs defense
Kanye West is speaking out in defense of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs as the latter faces serious legal trouble. Taking to social media, West urged President Donald Trump to intervene, calling for a pardon ahead of Combs’ upcoming trial.
West wrote on X, “FREE PUFF,” later adding, “@realDonaldTrump PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF.” He also criticized fellow celebrities for staying silent, saying, “ALL THESE CELEBRITY N****S AND B*****S IS P***Y YALL A WATCH OUR BROTHER ROT AND NEVER SAY S**T.” West went on to compare the situation to Chris Brown’s past controversies, claiming there was little support for him as well. His posts sparked an immediate backlash, with many questioning his decision to support Combs given the gravity of the charges.
Combs was arrested in September and remains in custody after being denied bail three times. He has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking and other offenses, with his trial scheduled to begin on May 5. If convicted, he could face life in prison. In addition to the criminal case, he is also dealing with multiple lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct, some involving minors.
West’s appeal to Donald Trump comes after the President issued pardons for numerous January 6th riot defendants at the start of his second term. Despite the weight of the accusations against Combs, West’s discussion continues to dominate headlines, with West refusing to back down.
