Diddy has come under fire after he urged black voters to withhold their vote in the upcoming presidential elections, during a recent video chat with Naomi Campbell.
In his appearance on ‘No Filter with Naomi’, the rapper told black voters to withhold their vote if their interests don’t align with those of presidential candidate Joe Biden.
Diddy said:
“In order for us to vote for Biden, we can’t be taken for granted like we always are because we’re supposed to be Democrats or because people are afraid of Trump. It’s business at this point.”
He stated that “the black vote is not going to be free” and stated that he would be holding the “black vote hostage”.
And his comments haven’t gone down well.
Friend and President of brand development for Combs Enterprises Kenny Burns said:
“Puff this statement is very irresponsible at this point. The only option is to get Trump out of office. Encouraging people to stand by is not an option. #VoteOrDie.”
