Sean "Diddy" Combs is the most recent person to criticize Ye for wearing a "White Lives Matter" shirt during his most recent YZY SZN 9 fashion show.

On Wednesday evening, October 6, the founder of Bad Boy Records addressed the issue on social media, criticizing Ye while also expressing his continued support for the influential music and fashion figure.

In the clip, Diddy walks the line between criticizing Ye's actions while also supporting him as a person.

“I’ve always been there and I will always support my brother [Ye] as a freethinker."
"But the ‘White lives matter’ t-shirt, I don’t rock with it, you know what I’m saying?"
"I’m not with it.”

Reactions to the post were pretty uniformly supporting of Diddy's message.

There were those who just affirmed what he said.

As the impact of Ye's decision to have White Lives Matter shirts at his fashion show continues to ripple—or thunder—across the pop culture landscape, Diddy will not be the last one of Ye's friends and colleagues to be forced to take a side or comment on the situation.

The mass exodus to RedNote, China's answer to Instagram, comes in advance of the potential ban of TikTok in the U.S. prompted by increased national security concerns about users' data being compromised and vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

Coca-Cola Blasted After Honoring Trump With Personalized Diet Coke Bottle For His Inauguration

The Coca-Cola company was widely criticized after James Quincey, its Chairman and CEO, presented President-elect Donald Trump with a Diet Coke bottle commemorating his upcoming inauguration.

The label on the bottle displayed Trump’s name, the date of his anticipated second inauguration, and an image of the White House. Trump is known to be a big fan of Diet Coke—he reportedly drinks 12 bottles per day—and he had an Oval Office button that aided in the delivery of the soda during his first presidency.
