•Kanye West, Donald Trump and Puff Daddy
With Sean “Diddy” Combs facing trial on multiple sex trafficking and abuse charges, Kanye West is calling on President Donald Trump to intervene.
The 24-time Grammy winner took to social media yesterday, urging Trump to pardon Combs before his May 5 trial.
“FREE PUFF,” West wrote on X, later adding, “@realDonaldTrump PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF.”
West also criticised celebrities for their silence, stating, “WATCH OUR BROTHER ROT AND NEVER SAY S—,” and referencing Chris Brown: “WE ALL WATCHED TAKE CHRIS BROWN AND AINT NOBODY DO NOTHING I WAS P— THEN TOO CHRIS BROWN ITS TO THE WHEELS FALL OFF.”
His comments followed Trump’s sweeping pardon of nearly 1,500 January 6 defendants.
Combs, 55, was arrested by NYPD on September 16 and remains jailed after being denied bail three times.
Facing charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and transporting individuals for prostitution, he could receive a life sentence if convicted.
In addition, Combs, also known as Puff Daddy, is battling numerous sexual assault lawsuits, including one with Jay-Z as a co-defendant. Several of his accusers are minors, including a 10-year-old boy.
