AceShowbiz - The ongoing saga surrounding Kanye West and his controversial tweets continue, with Cassie entering the picture. The R&B singer, who dated Sean "P. Diddy" Combs for over a decade, indirectly told Kanye to keep his mouth shut after he publicly defended Combs.
The conflict began when Kanye West took to his X account to criticize Cassie, accusing her of extorting Combs after she sued him for assault.
"HOW EVERY NI**A YOU KNOW HIT A GIRL BEFORE BUT EVERYBODY SO MAD AT PUFF," West wrote on X. "SO CASSIE AINT EXTORT PUFF? CASSIE CAME TO PUFF AND SAID GIMME 30 MILLION OR IMA RELEASE A TELL ALL BOOK THATS LOOK LIKE EXTORTION TO ME."
In response, Cassie re-shared a screenshot of Playboi Carti's tweet on her Instagram Story. "Ye STFU," the message read.
Playboi Carti was another rapper being dragged by Kanye into his whirlwind of outbursts. Kanye claimed he was blocked from contributing to Carti's album because of "Jewish businesses" and then launched into an angry rant after Carti gave Kim Kardashian and North West a shout-out in response to Kim posting Carti's song on Instagram.
While Kanye is alienating a lot of acquaintances in the industry, he is unwavering in his support for Combs. Kanye recently released a song featuring the incarcerated rapper and Ye's own daughter North, sparking frictions with ex-wife Kim.
However, even Combs was reportedly wary of Kanye, especially after their prison call leaked. A source said Combs didn't know his call from jail was recorded for public consumption. The embattled star "thought he was having a friend call him to check on his kids."
This escalating drama surrounding Kanye West shows no signs of slowing down, capturing the attention of fans and haters alike as it unfolds in the public eye.
