Kanye West: I still don't understand awardshows!
Ryg en led joint, og hold en af de længste, mest narcissisitiske takketaler i historien - God idé?
Det var ikke kun Miley der var på krigsstien ved nattens MTV Video Music Awards. Kanye West fik overrakt en Vanguard Award (ærespris) af Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift, som i 2009 blev skubbet af scenen af selvsamme Kanye, fordi han mente at hun ikke havde fortjent at vinde.
Det kastede Kanye ud i en 10 minutter lang "takketale", hvor han blandt andet får sagt 'bro' ret mange gange, fortæller at, jo, han har da lige røget en bønne inden han skulle på scenen. Så får han også fortalt, at han stadig ikke forstår awardshows, og fortsætter ud af tangenten og fortæller, at han ikke kan forstå hvorfor kunstnere skal lægge deres hovede på brændeblokken, for at ende som tabere. Glasset er åbenbart halvt tomt i Kanyes hverdag. Nå ja, og så er han klar til at blive præsident i 2020:
And yes, as you probably could have guessed from this moment, I have decided in 2020 to run for president. - Kanye

Sometimes I feel like I died for the artist’s opinion, for the artist to have an opinion after they got successful. I’m not no politician bro - Kanye
I think about when I’m in the grocery store with my daughter and I have a really great conversation about fresh juice at the… you know. And at the end they say, “Oh you’re not that bad after all." - Kanye
You know, this arena tomorrow is gonna be a completely different set up—some concert… This stage will be gone. - Kanye
Y'all might be thinking right now, "I wonder, did he smoke something before he came out here?" The answer is yes; I rolled up a little something. I knocked the edge off. - Kanye
