'I've always been there and I'll always support my brother Kanye as a free thinker.
'But the White Lives Matter T-shirt, I don't rock with it, I'm not with it.

And what the press and what fashion is doing, thinking this is a joke, but right now, all America has planned for us is poverty, incarceration and death.
'So before I can get to any other lives matter - which all lives matter, you know what I'm saying - that Black Lives Matter...
don't play with it. Don't wear the shirt, don't buy the shirt, don't play with the shirt. It's not a joke.'

It is not the first time that Ye has stoked controversy surrounding race, after saying in 2018 that he thought 400 years of slavery 'was a choice.'

During a May 2018 interview regarding his support of Trump, West said: 'Racism isn't the deal-breaker for me.

If that was the case, I wouldn't live in America.'
