Suge Knight is not happy with rapper Kanye West following his disrespectful social media rant aimed at the young children of his former friends.
Kanye West ignited a firestorm by launching a series of scathing social media attacks against Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s 7-year-old twins, Rumi and Sir Carter. The rapper took to X (formerly Twitter) to question the children’s mental capacities, using profane language that has left fans and the music industry reeling.
Reports even circulated that Beyoncé’s parents, Tina and Mathew Knowles, are considering legal action in response to the defamatory remarks, with Tina seemingly calling Ye’s comments “evil.”
Now Suge wants a word with Kanye.
“I need to holla at Kanye,” he told The Art of Dialogue. “We never, never disrespect no one’s kids. You don’t talk about Jay and Beyoncé’s children and call them ‘retarded.’ That’s what we won’t do. It’s real consequences for those type of actions.”
“I hold people in Hip Hop, people in our community, to higher standards than that. We came a long way as Black people, as slaves, not to protect people’s kids or people that are disabled. That’s not funny to me, not one bit.”
Ye has since deleted the tweets but has repeatedly said that he will not apologize to Bey and Jay.
