Kanye West is admitting he was wrong about his Beck rant from after this year’s Grammys, where he exploded with anger at E!’s after show about the musician’s win for Album of the Year over Beyonce.
West is backtracking from his comments that Beck needs to “respect artistry” and “should have given his award to Beyoncé.”
He told the Sunday Times, "I'm fine to apologize for inaccuracies," adding, “I send flowers for inaccuracies.”
“I talked to Beck's wife, and I think I had a point about Beyonce's album, but I think I was inaccurate with the concept of a gentleman who plays 14 instruments not respecting artistry,” he continued.
West has apologized to Beck before but he also talked about the public’s reactions to his outspokenness, like the Beck rant.
"Isn't it amazing that people are so constantly shocked by the commonly agreed-on truth?" he asked. "How much bullsh-t are we in if, every single time I give not just my opinion, but a vast 80%, 90% opinion, I get into that much trouble? When the truth is a mass opinion. That's not about accuracy, it's the definition of truth."
