Trevor Noah doesn’t have any “beef” with Kanye West.
Talking to an audience member who had asked him about the alleged feud between them, “The Daily Show” host asked, “Why am I beefing with Kanye? That’s an interesting way to phrase it because a beef has to go both ways.”
He continued in the video posted to the show’s official TikTok account, “Genuinely it does. In my limited understanding of the world, beef has always been something that generally will happen between two hip-hop artists. I’ve never beefed with Kanye West. I was concerned about Kanye West.”
Noah, 38, actually condemned those around the rapper-turned-designer, 45, for not recognizing that he could potentially be in the midst of a mental health episode.
“If somebody says to me that they have a mental health issue, and they say to everyone that when they don’t take their medication they’re unable to control themselves — and then everyone ignores when that person is having an episode and they haven’t taken the medication — and then they platform the person and put them up … I sometimes think it’s a little s–tty, to be honest with you,” he said.
He also went in on those giving him a platform to “go off saying anything,” noting, “What I have beef with is us as a society not coming together around the person and going like, ‘Hey, maybe this is not the moment to put a microphone in your face so that you just go off saying everything.’”
Noah told his audience that he actually “grew up loving this man.”
