Kanye West revealed that he was dropping a line of merch in collaboration with Diddy, who is currently in the middle of a number of lawsuits. The post which Ye shared on Instagram and X was further reshared by Diddy on his social media account.

The post included three t-shirts- red, white, and blue. The caption of the post dated February 7, read:

"@ Yeezy.com 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."

Diddy later reshared the same on Instagram, further thanking Kanye West. In a series of other tweets, Kanye shared individual posts about the three t-shirts, each reportedly on sale for $20.

Kanye West addressed President Donald Trump and urged him to pardon Sean "Diddy" Combs

Kanye West urged Donald Trump to pardon Diddy, whose trial is set to begin in May 2025. Combs had pleaded not guilty and also has gotten his bail rejected thrice. In a post dated February 6, 2025, Kanye wrote:

"@realDonaldTrump PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF."

West has supported Trump for quite some now. In 2020, he was favoring Trump until he ended up launching his own campaign. In 2024, he was again supporting the Republican candidate who ultimately became the President of the United States.

In September 2024, authorities arrested Diddy on charges surrounding racketeering conspiracy, s*x trafficking, and transportation to engage in pr*stitution.

The rapper is now detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York. The rapper has denied all the allegations made against him.
