Kris Jenner says Kanye West's offensive rants were done with 'good intentions'

The 'momager' says he will explain himself in his own way

Kris Jenner has addressed concerns about her son-in-law Kanye West and his recent offensive outbursts - insisting that he always has "good intentions."

On Friday, the Kardashian matriarch appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and discussed West's controversial rants.

DeGeneres and Jenner began speaking about the rapper when the talk show host wondered if he was okay asking her, "What's going on?"

"Kanye has a lot of love for all of you, all of his fans, and everybody who's been there to support him forever," Jenner said, adding that it was a "relief" when DeGeneres said they wouldn't be talking about them the entire segment.

Jenner said she knows "that he will explain himself in his own way," but believes his statements are coming from the "right place."

"I think that anything he does, and I just think this is important to say is, he always does things with really good intentions," she said. "So I'm going to let him explain himself when the time is ready."

Earlier this week, West came under fire while appearing on TMZ, defending his recent support of President Trump and commenting that slavery was "a choice."

"People were taught how to think, we're taught how to feel," the "Famous" rapper said. "We don't know how to think for ourselves. We don't know how to feel for ourselves. People say, 'Feel free,' but they don't really want us to feel free and I felt a freedom... I just love Trump, that's my boy."

He then said, "When you hear about slavery for 400 years - for 400 years? That sounds like a choice. Like, you were there for 400 years and it's all of you all?"

West's comments drew backlash from rappers, friends and fans alike.

Will.I.Am remarked that West's words "broke my heart."

While Spike Lee said, "My Brother, OUR ancestors did not choose to be stolen from mother Africa."

West has continued to stand by his comments.
