Kanye West allegedly had no interest in meeting with Diddy after the producer wanted to link up at Rolling Loud.
According to a TMZreport from Thursday (March 28), the Bad Boy founder and his crew set up camp backstage at the festival to watch Ye and Ty Dolla $ign, and expressed to Yeezy’s team that Diddy wanted to meet after the set.
The report continued that West had no interest in linking with Diddy, or, at the very least, wasn’t going to go out of his way for some face time.
It was only two years ago that the “CARNIVAL” rapper and “I’ll Be Missing You” MC were beefing, so it is not known why Diddy may want to meet with Kanye.

The two took their issues public when they had a heated exchange over Ye’s “White Lives Matter” t-shirt controversy.
The Chicago-born rapper took to his Instagram with a series of posts showing fans the conversation he was having with Diddy and made it loud and clear he wasn’t going to let his peer stop him from doing what he needs to.
The Bad Boy Records mogul told The Breakfast Club he did not agree with Kanye’s decision to wear the “White Lives Matter” t-shirt but wouldn’t condemn him either. Kanye caught wind of the comments and addressed Diddy early Friday morning.
“I didn’t like our convo,” Kanye wrote. “I’m selling these tees Nobody gets in between me and my money This is my grandfather texting you now Never call me with no bullshit like that again unless you ready to green light me Cause anybody who got on that tee is me.”

Ye continued to say he would be as quiet as his friend and late fashion designer Virgil Abloh while also admitting he knew how he had hurt people he loved with his threats. He then asked Puff to confront him.
“Come do something illegal to me noooow pleeeeeeeeease,” Kanye added.
It’s unclear if Kanye’s decision to swerve Diddy at Rolling Loud was due to the latter’s legal mess.
Since that show, things have only gotten worse for the mogul.

Earlier this week, Touré added his voice to the ongoing Diddy drama, claiming that the Bad Boy founder once made sexual advances towards one of his male relatives who was interning for him.
The cultural critic was a guest on Joy Reid’s MSNBC show The ReidOut when he made the startling allegation.
“I was personally disturbed many years ago,” Touré said while discussing the recent federal raids on Puffy’s homes as part of a sex trafficking investigation. “I know this man well enough to call him and say, ‘Hey, I need a favor.’ This might have been 10, 12 years ago.

“I called him and said, ‘Hey, I have a family member who I want you to hire as an intern.’ I have never talked about this publicly. He said, ‘Yes.’ And they were flying around, on the jet, in the house, whatever.”
He continued: “And then the internship stopped abruptly, like three or four months into it. I spoke to my family member like, ‘What happened?’ And they wouldn’t say.
“Years later, they finally came out — this is a male — and said that Puff had said, ‘Come home, stay the night with me or the internship is over.’ And they said, ‘Absolutely not.’ And the internship ended.”
