Kanye West Stirs Controversy With “The Love Hoodie” Amid Diddy Assault Video Fallout
Kanye West is back in the spotlight, stirring controversy with a bold new merchandise that seems to tap into one of hip-hop’s biggest scandals. He recently introduced the “Love Hoodie,” which references a well-known video from 2016 showing Diddy in an altercation with Cassie, a former girlfriend. This revelation has sparked a lot of discussions online, especially given Diddy’s current legal troubles. Kanye shared the hoodie on X (formerly Twitter), placing it next to a screenshot from the controversial video, making it very clear what he was hinting at.
His caption was provocative, “Hey question, if someone were to beat up their girlfriend in public, would that be considered domestic violence, or is that outdoor violence, or is it just public indecency? …. I’m just asking for a friend.” At first, it seemed like Kanye was criticizing Diddy’s actions, but things took a surprising turn when he later defended him. In another post, he even reached out to former president Donald Trump, asking him to “PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF,” referring to Diddy. Diddy is currently facing serious charges that include sex trafficking and racketeering, and while he has pleaded not guilty, the situation appears to be serious and complicated.
Kanye’s recent actions have sparked a heated debate. Is he just trolling everyone for fun? Is he trying to make a statement about society? Or does he truly support Diddy despite the serious allegations? Kanye continues to blend fashion with controversy in a way that gets people talking. As reactions from fans and critics continue to roll in, “The Love Hoodie” is already becoming one of the most talked about pieces in Kanye’s fashion line. Whether his actions are considered rebellious or reckless, Kanye West keeps proving that he follows his rules, regardless of what others think.

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi
Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.
Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.
The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.
“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
