Watch Kanye West on Ellen DeGeneres Show Rant, Reveals He Has No Twitter Regrets, Hints He's a Genius
Kanye West insists he's never regretted or second-guessed anything he's ever tweeted, telling talk show host "what's the point of thinking."
During a recent appearance on the "Ellen" show, Kim Kardashian's better half also embarked on a lengthy rant that touched on everything from humanity to artistry to the importance of loving life.
Kanye has no regrets
The closest West came to expressing regret over one of his many controversial tweets came when he spoke about a post he sent out to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg asking for $53 million.
"I should have put it on Facebook," said a smiling West. "Now I understand why he didn't hit me back."
West went on to insist his heart was in the right place when he made his request of Zuckerberg.
"I feel that if I had more resources, I could help more people," he said. "I have ideas that can make the human race's existence, within our hundred years, better."
The "Life of Pablo" artist went on to add he feels the world is now in a time of renaissance.
"We're in a place where people are multi-discipline artists," he said. "We're not in a place where people can only have one career or one profession throughout their entire life."
West explained that's the same vision he takes with him in performing all his many gigs, from making music to designing shoes and fashion.
"The exact amount of emotion and color palette and sonics and everything that I put into my music, I put into [my line of] shoes, and they worked," he added.
West also addressed what he sees as the lack of true geniuses in today's world.
"Picasso is dead. Steve Jobs is dead. Walt Disney is dead. Name somebody living that you can name in the same breath as them," he said before again turning attention to his own brilliance.
West in a Class all by Himself?
"Everything that I sonically make is a painting," he added. "I can see it [and] I see the importance and the value of being able to experience a more beautiful life."
Throughout of the interview, DeGeneres simply looked on as West continued to rant, at one point telling the host "I'm sorry for the realness."
