French Montana, the Global Citizen, chimes in on Kanye's controversy.

Kanye West has been stirring up a whole lot of controversy between his support for Donald Trump, his love for the way Candace Owens thinks or more recently, his comments on slavery. While he's clarified his comments on slavery, his support for both Candace Owens and Donald Trump is still scratching heads. Many of his close friends and associates have tried to speak to Kanye about it which ultimately has led to texts conversations being screenshot and posted on his Twitter. French Montana recently chimed in on Kanye's behavior. Even though he says Kanye's his brother, he has a difficult time getting down with his support for Trump.

French Montana was recently caught up by TMZ earlier today. French and Kanye have worked together in the past and with French's previous relationship with Khloe Kardashian, there's a good chance they got closer during that time. However, French Montana is not feeling Kanye's support for Donald Trump.

"I'm not feelin' what he doin' with the holdin' Trump down." He said. He continued to speak on what the Trump administration is doing and said that he can't support someone taking education away from students. However, with Kanye, that's still big bro regardless of his political stance.

"I love Kanye, man. I guess he got an album coming out. That's my big brother, you know? That's family. I could never go against him but I just don't respect somebody like [Trump] who deport so many people and hurt so many families." He said.
