Memphis rapper NLE Choppa isn’t ready to cancel Kanye West quite yet. The hip-hop newcomer has come forward to share his thoughts on Yeezy recently making controversial remarks about abolitionist icon Harriet Tubman not freeing Blacks during slavery.

NLE Choppa Won’t Cancel Kanye West

“I think y’all misunderstood watt Kanye said but at the same time idk til he explain himself. I think he saying yes Harriet Tubman freed the slaves but we still was under the whites. We didn’t own any land, jobs, anything. Basically free in our eyes but the system still against us … How we free when THEY own damn near everything, they put us in the hood so we can fail. Gave us drugs, guns, etc to land us in jail and treat us like slaves. I know n*ggas with life sentences over drugs but seen pedophiles live in these surburbs free as can be … Question is how we change all this sh*t … I Made My Own Label I Cant See No N*gga Soning Me ??‍♂️ #NLE?” -NLE Choppa’s Twitter

On Monday, rap star T.I. went to his social media pages and didn’t hold back on checking Kanye. The Atlanta native and publicized Black Lives Matter activist spoke up for Tubman’s legacy and blasted Ye for downplaying Tubman’s historic contributions to helping the liberation of Blacks during slavery times.

Prior to T.I. slamming Kanye West, R&B singer Trey Songz went online with footage of Ye explaining his feelings toward Tubman. Songz questioned Kanye’s state of mind and encouraged his peers to reach out to West.
