Kanye West has always had P. Diddy's back, even before the trial started. He has always been vocal about freeing the rap mogul on his X account and even made a song with the title "Diddy Free." However, the track is yet to be released. On May 9, 2025, the Donda rapper reposted an X post that was uploaded by an account run by two of Diddy's children. The account goes by the name LOVE (@Diddy) and is run by Combs' two sons, King Combs and Justin Dior Combs, as stated in the account's bio.

The original post from the LOVE (@Diddy) account has garnered over 2 million views and has more than 500 comments. The post reads:

Kanye West reposted the above-mentioned post with a simple hashtag and a black heart emoji. The Stronger rapper wrote:

"🖤 #FREEDIDDY"

Ye's repost has also gained a lot of traction. With more than 1.6 million views and more than 600 comments. However, the majority of the fans in the comment section do not agree with Ye's repost.


How did fans react to Kanye's repost of an X post made by Diddy's children?

Many did not stand by what Kanye reposted, even those who adore the rapper. They made their stance clear when it comes to the Bad Boy Records founder. While a handful of comments are seen to support Ye's statement, however, it is unclear whether they are trolling or serious.

Have a look at some of the comments from Ye's repost:

"ni**a you high?" - @IntradayMavrick commented.

One user who wanted to know the logic or reasons behind Kanye's repost said:

"Trying to understand why you are saying this can you explain why you think he should be free or is this all for the bully album? Also what does saying Heil Hitler means to you, you right I don't understand which is why I'm asking genuinely trying to understand hopeyou respond bak" - @JacobQuilizapa wrote.

A fan wrote:

"This is not my Kanye." - @squishygaypaws commented.

While others think that it is all a publicity stunt for the rapper's new meme coin. They wrote:

"He’s testing to show how much flex he has in crypto again. I love your mind ye thanks for everything" - @048411a73ea349c stated.
