"Love Island USA" star Kenny Rodriguez is finally addressing the racist text message controversy that erupted after his breakup with fellow star JaNa Craig.

According to Kenny, one of the messages included a broad generalization that he now regrets making ... pushing back on the idea that the texts prove he's racist and pointing to his background and dating history.

Kenny puts it like this ... "I've dated Black women before. I have Black ancestry. I'm Dominican. Half of my family is dark skin. There was never a problem with race. The problem was with how you were treating me."
