"Even black people understand it": Nick Fuentes reveals how Kanye West reacted to podcaster using the "N-word"

Nick Fuentes’ latest appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored on December 8, 2025, is drawing widespread attention after the far-right podcaster claimed controversial rapper Kanye “Ye” West defended his use of the N-word during a private exchange.

The remarks surfaced during a lengthy interview in which host Piers Morgan repeatedly pressed Fuentes about his past comments on Black Americans, women, and Jews- statements that Nick Fuentes has openly doubled down on in previous interviews and conversations.

Around 43 minutes into the two-hour-long interview, Fuentes recounted a conversation with Ye in which the rapper allegedly gave him a free pass to use the racial slur, saying,

"Well, you know what Ye told me? I'll tell you verbatim what he said. He said, so you use the N word. I said, yeah, he goes, well, when n****s are being n****s, I said, so true. That's so true. So they feel like they're in agreement with me"

When Piers Morgan further pressed and asked Fuentes what he meant, the latter responded by saying,

"It means that even black people know how black people can behave. Even black people understand it"

More about Nick Fuentes' comments on Black Americans

Piers Morgan pressed Nick Fuentes regarding his racial remarks quite extensively, prompting the latter to mention rappers Kanye West and Sneako in conversation, saying,

"Most of my friends are non-white. Most of my friends are non white. And non-white people love my show because they respect the honesty......many of them, like at least a dozen. Ye being one who you know, Sneeko being another who you also know"

Nick Fuentes framed the exchange with Kanye West as evidence that Black friends “feel like they’re in agreement” with him and argued that his comments reflect what he calls “racial realism,” not bigotry.

Fuentes insisted his stance is not an “aversion based on skin color", stating that discussions about race reflect “tribalistic instincts” he believes cannot be erased through education or social change.

"I speak provocatively about our tribalistic instincts and tendencies as human beings. And I'm not a liberal ideologue that says that over time and with enough education, we're all going to see this great brotherhood where we're colorblind and everybody's the same. You know, I don't think that's ever going away. I think that race is real. It's not just skin deep. It matters to us"

According to him, Black, Hispanic, and Asian people, along with those of partial Mexican ancestry like himself, understand these racial dynamics similarly. Nick Fuentes also described his "approach" to Black Americans as an “economy of information” related to perceived safety and not racial aversion when Piers Morgan accused him of "aversion."

The highly contentious interview also covered Nick Fuentes’ past statements about women- opinions that Fuentes reinforced in the interview. Along with controversial views on sexual assault, Fuente claimed he finds women “difficult to be around,” and believes they should not be allowed to vote.

Piers Morgan challenged Fuentes over his pattern of misogynistic remarks, including claims that “women suck… they’re talking too much, they’re not hot anymore.” He also described women as “annoying” and resistant to losing weight.

Nick Fuentes also said that men must marry women "in spite" of the characteristic he described, and that women must remain confined to the home. The 27-year-old also attributed his opinions partly to religious beliefs and partly to being “autistic” and “antisocial.”

Throughout the interview, Nick Fuentes showed no interest in moderating his positions, telling Morgan that he is “fine” with calling himself a racist and asserting that “everybody is racist,” with white people being the only group who “pretend not to be.”

The interview quickly went viral, and commentary across platforms emphasized the confrontation between Fuentes’ extremist views and Morgan’s attempts to press for clarification.
