The latest controversial argument that the star has weighed in on is the R Kelly and Michael Jackson debate, in which people are questioning whether you should separate the art from the artists or not.
The rapper said that everyone should be able to separate the two and we shouldn't try to "tear artists down."
Kim quickly rushed to his defence, saying that she wants to "nip this in the bud" before Kanye receives any unwanted attention for the tweets.
I want to make it very clear, he is not condoning anyone’s actions or unacceptable disgusting behavior. My husband’s words are being taken out of context due to timing.

I’m going to nip this in the bud right now. Kanye was speaking about his own experience of everyone quick to say they are cancelling him because of differences in opinion & not being perfect. The analogies were in context to his own experiences, not defending anyone else.
