On the negative feedback from the “Best I Ever Had” video
You can do something you believe in and people will still say, “This sh*t is terrible!” But I still believe in Kanye’s vision.

We don’t have the most personal relationship where we hang out every day or we talk that much, but Wayne’s admiration and respect goes without being verbally said. He put his neck out there for me at a very early stage, and those actions tell me everything I need to know about how he feels about me as an artist.
