Kanye West
Grammy Red Carpet Interview with Kanye West
Kevin Frazier: Talk about making an appearance on the red carpet. Kim Kardashian, Kanye West. Kanye, you're back after six years, are you happy to be back and performing tonight, much anticipated performance with Paul McCartney and Rihanna
Kanye West: I'm just extremely happy, can you tell by my face?
KF: The Grammy's have frustrated you in the past with their selection. What does it mean to you though to be back here now, you look at, you know, you're nominated again, have you given the Grammy's another chance, have you kind of purged your system of what was going on before
KW: I'm appreciative of my nomination but I really just wanted to use the stage to perform this song "Only One". It's extremely important to me. Also the Grammy's could adjust their voting system, I think it's extremely flawed but we're going to work on that, I'm not going to complain from stage about it. I'm gonna work on it from the inside
KF: Tell me about the new music and what was it like collaborating with Paul McCartney and just, once again, another musical direction, a different musical direction for you
KW: I mean it was just fun to go in and vibe out and not worry about what was happening on radio or how successful the song would be. Just do something from my heart, you know. Sometimes its challenging for people to create something without boundaries and I feel like I have a responsibility to innovate
KF: Kim I gotta ask you, how happy are you now? We see the pictures with Nori and you've really become a family, how is she doing?
Kim Kardashian: She's doing good. We were just talking about this earlier, how she has this pose. She knows her paparazzi pose perfectly. She'll be like screaming and I put a camera on and she knows its on her, she gets so serious like her dad. It's really cute
KF: What does it mean to you to have this family now Kanye? And you look at your daughter, you look at your wife, how has that fulfilled your life?
KW: It's given me a whole perspective on what to work for, what to live for, and an understanding on how other families, you know, operate
