Video: Kanye West Rants in NJ; Defends Drake, Talks Macklemore’s Grammy Win

Kanye West is back with yet another rant! After dissing Charlamagne Tha God and Sway a couple of nights ago in Pennsylvania, Yeezy made his way to Newark, New Jersey to express his feelings on the whole Rolling Stone/Drake debacle. He makes his voice heard on subjects such as being misunderstood, being called a “rapper,” choosing Adidas over Nike, Drake’s comments about Yeezus, Rolling Stone magazine, the media, Macklemore’s Grammy win and more.
NB-Much has been made of Kanye West's infamous "rants" at his concerts but, as is often the case, his actions and words make much more sense in full context. Kanye played the Prudential Center in Newark on 2/15 and he had a lot to say. Yeezy spoke for 20 minutes on everything from why he left Nike for Adidas, having Drake's back when it comes to misrepresentation by the media, the media's negative portrayal of Hip-Hop and its artists, the Grammy's and more. It was certainly stream of consciousness...but it was far from a "rant." Check out the video...all of it.
