Kanye West Booed After Latest Concert Rant?
Kanye West reportedly lost hundreds of fans who booed their way out of The Wireless Festival during one of his rants in London recently.
While performing his "Runaway" song in a bejeweled mask, the 37-year-old rap mogul reportedly began to rant for about 20-minutes before festival attendees became fed up.
"They taking the idea of celebrity and make me seem like I was stupid or something," the rapper shouted, according to Radar Online reports. "I just want to be awesome and hang around my awesome friends and change the world!"
It seems people were not happy with the performer and began to boo before hundreds stormed out, according to Daily Mail reports.
"Hundreds of people left the park early because they were so bored of his long rant," one attendee told the publication.
West is no stranger to ranting while performing.
West, the 37-year-old rap mogul, previously appeared on Power 106 FM where he defended comparing himself to well known figures like Steve Jobs. However, he insists that instead of calling him egotistical, people should focus on his intent for distributing his messages the way he does.
"Don't worry about how I'm saying what I'm saying," he said on the radio station. "Look at what I'm saying and how I feel and how my intent is."
The "Yeezus" rapper spoke about his belief that God has called him to a specific mission that he is currently carrying out.
"You do not want to go against the power. I'm working on one mission, and that's a mission from God," West said on the radio show. "I'm gonna make it very clear exactly what I'm here to do."
West insisted that he is not here to be egotistical, but to help others.
"I'm here to help. I'm going to apply all the blessings I've got," he said. "We're moving to the future. [And] I'm gonna be the anchor."
