Kanye West has continued defending Sean 'Diddy' Combs, stating the incarcerated mogul is a 'way better dad than me.'. West, 47, shared two posts supportive of the father of seven, who is currently behind bars at the at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center following his arrest last year on sex trafficking, racketeering and prostitution charges. Diddy, 55, has vehemently denied all of the allegations and charges against him. He has been denied bail multiple times.
'PUFF IS A WAY BETTER DAD THAN MY DAD AND A WAY BETTER DAD THAN ME,' West posted to X on Sunday morning. Minutes earlier, he posted a photo of Diddy on the red carpet with six of his children at a 2020 event. 'I WISH I HAD THE RELATIONSHIP WITH MY DAD THAT PUFF HAS WITH HIS KIDS,' West, whose father is Ray West, added.

West shared an image of Diddy with his children at this 2020 event to his X account as he praised the incarcerated mogul as a parent. A father of seven, Diddy has son Christian Combs, 26, and twin daughters D'Lila and Jessie Combs, 18, with his late ex partner Kim Porter. He also adopted the son Kim shares with Al B. Sure!, Quincy Taylor Brown, 33. Diddy also has son Justin Combs, 30, with fashion designer Misa Hylton, daughter Chance Combs, 18, with businesswoman Sarah Chapman, and daughter Love Sean Combs, two, with model Dana Tran.
West has four children with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian - daughters North West, 11, Chicago West, seven, and sons Saint West, nine, and Psalm West, five. It's just the latest post supportive of Diddy that Kanye has shared amidst his rant on X, which has seen him post vile anti-Semitic, sexist and homophobic comments. Seemingly calling an end to their three-year feud, Kanye, 47, launched into a tirade last week begging President Trump to 'Free Puff' and revealing he was releasing a Yeezy clothing line in collaboration with Diddy's Sean John brand.
Diddy ended up thanking West after he called for him to be freed from jail. Diddy reposted the rapper'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 the Yeezy website. West praised Diddy as a parent, calling him a 'way better dad than me'. The rapper added he wished he had the same relationship with his father that Diddy has with his children.
West shares four children with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian. Kanye began his rant on Friday by addressing Diddy - real name Sean Combs - by his former stage name, Puff Daddy, tweeting: '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.'.
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.'.
It's just the latest post supportive of Diddy that Kanye has shared amidst his vile, anti-Semitic X rant; Diddy pictured in 2022. 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 being ousted as the frontman of global alcoholic drinks giant, Diageo.
Using racist slurs and 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.'.
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.'. Kanye's support for Diddy will no doubt have come as a shock to many, given the pair have been locked in a feud since Kanye unveiled his controversial 'White Lives Matter' merchandise in 2022; West and Diddy pictured at a Vibe Magazine and Ciroc party in 2006.
