Hollywood actor Nick Cannon isn’t completely convinced Kanye West really had issues with him and Drake. The hip-hop artist has dug deep into last week’s explosive series of clips where Yeezy went on an explosive tear against them.
In a new interview, Cannon said he could see Kanye low-key using his clips as free promotion for his brand.
“He’s a master at manipulating the media and controlling the media and controlling his message. So I had to step back and be like, ‘Why is he doing this?’ You know what I mean? I don’t know. It’s Yeezy promotion. He was new to Instagram, he was talking, he was referencing some old media while he was focusing on his media. So I was like, ‘Alright, I’m going to answer back with my media.'” (Big Boy TV)
This week, R&B singer Ray J weighed-in on the Kanye West and Nick Cannon dispute.
“I haven’t really been paying attention to the back and forth between [Kanye and Nick],” he said. “For me, I have to grow up and be my own man and look out for my own family and make sure that my wife and baby are comfortable with what I’m saying. So if that affects them then it affects me.” (TooFab)
According to reports, Kanye and Nick recently communicated through social media to squash their beef.
Kanye West and Nick Cannon have come to a mutual understanding after going at each other on social media over Kim Kardashian West — and the consensus is this … R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Sources tell us that Kanye and Nick squashed their beef this weekend after Nick responded to Ye on Instagram, basically telling him to not try and censor what he can or can’t say in interviews. We’re told they swapped numbers in their IG DMs … and eventually, both of them got on the horn to hash things out in a fairly long convo. (TMZ)
Last week, Nick Cannon responded to Kanye’s video explosion aimed at him and Drake.
“So I just landed in Houston, we sold out the tour, Toyota Center tonight but I just got word. First off, let me say welcome back Ye from the Sunken Place. Glad you’re back with us brother. Nothing but love and respect for you. You know I’ve always had that but honestly I gotta say this my dude, I’ve never said anything disrespectful or harmful, in my opinion, to your marriage or your union. I salute it. Keep it going. But you’re not going to tell me what I can and cannot say. I’m a solid individual. If somebody ask me a question, I’m going to answer it to the best of my ability. Ain’t no harm, no foul. I know it got your spirit feeling weird. Holler at me. You know where I’m at. A man’s spirit is free but pride binds it at times. If you gotta let that loose, let it loose. I’m gonna let the train go by like you said. [laughs]”
