I can be vilified. I can be misunderstood. I didn't come here to be liked. I came here to make a difference.

People know I'm smart. And people know that, whether it's SNL or Jimmy Kimmel, it's a trend to take the piss out of celebrity -- just as much of a trend as wearing a gray hoodie or driving a Prius.

Drug dealer buy Jordans, crackhead buy crack. And a white man get paid off of all of that.

Everyone's born confident, and everything's taken away from you.

I'm always fighting either to have a house work with us or to head a house. It's a lifestyle I can totally see: the future, modern Versailles, modern Versace, modern Calabasas, paparazzi, celebrity language. I just want to build a collection that's around me and my wife and my kids.

The idea of Kanye and vanity are like, synonymous.

If I do become more successful, either as a producer or a rapper, I'm going to do everything I can to help whoever I can on the label.
