Kylie Jenner chimes in following an incredibly active week for Kanye West.

It's been a big week for Kanye and not in the way that we would hope. The rapper hopped on Twitter and went on a massive rant aimed towards Drake. However, the Chicago rapper still managed to drag in his protege, Travis Scott into the whole scenario. Kanye West felt some type of way about Travis Scott allowing Drake to diss him on "SICKO MODE" with several of the lines in the song including "checks over stripes." Although Kanye West and Travis talked things out, fans believed that Travis was being petty towards 'Ye after he posted a picture of himself in a Nike hoodie. However, Kylie Jenner has chimed in and slams the accusations.

Kylie Jenner is taking a page out of Kim Kardashian's book and standing up for her man on social media. The Houston rapper has been working with Nike for a minute while 'Ye's worked with Adidas for a long time. Despite wearing a Nike sweater on Instagram, Kylie Jenner insisted this was no type of shade towards Kanye.

"He's not being petty," she wrote. "This is a sweatshirt design (the sock is a part of the design). Everyone is good, moved on, living life. For anyone who wasn't aware-Travis has had a deal with Nike and still does. Point is... It's all been talked out. It's only positive energy."
