Anyone who says they want to see Kanye West and not hear a rant is a straight-up liar. Rants are part of the package, and we ain't about getting stiffed.
That being said, Kanye's words are always being taken out of context. And we want to make sure you get the full experience. So we here at Crossfade took a video of Mr. West's whole 20-minute, talk-my-shit-again antics. That way, you can hear everything for yourself.
But we also know that you're probably lazy. So we broke down the 14 best quotes.
