Kanye West proffered zen ruminations about his new album, Yeezy Season 2 line, his growing acceptance within the fashion world and why he's got a legitimate shot at the presidency in 2020 in a lengthy interview with Vanity Fair.
Speaking about the positive reaction to his political proclamation at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, West said he was somewhat taken aback, especially considering the backlash he's faced in past years.
"And then as soon as I said that, it was like, 'Wait a second, we would really be into that, because actually if you think about it, he's extremely thoughtful. Every time he's ever gotten in trouble, he was really jumping in front of a bullet for someone else. He's probably the most honest celebrity that we have,'" the rapper said.
