Yesterday, Kanye West sat down with an interview with Matt Lauer for "The Today Show." Following the interview, West was highly upset and feels as if he was set up. During the interview, Kanye West formally apologized to George W. Bush over the Hurricane Katrina comments.
In the middle of West's humble apology, the producers began playing the clip of Kanye at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. He would accuse Matt Lauer of conducting the interview under false pretenses and trying to coherce emotional answers from him.
After a horrible interview, Kanye West says he is done dealing with the press.
Read his Twitter posts below:
I went up there to express how I was empathetic to Bush because I labeled him a racist and years later I got labeled as a racist....

I don't trust anyone but myself! Everyone has an agenda. I don't do press anymore. I can't be everything to everybody anymore.
