Kanye West got engaged to Kim Kardashian on Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 9 Episode 5 in October. So the rapper should be relaxed and content, right? That wasn’t the state in which Kanye found himself Saturday during a concert in New Jersey, as he added to his collection of classic rants by donning a mask and going off on what he perceives to be a racist media. “I don’t care who you are — TMZ, E!, Barbara Walters — don’t play yourself. Respect it as such,” yelled West, in reference to his engagement to Kim. Kanye West Rant: RESPECT ME! West then compared himself to Miles Davis, Prince and Missy Elliot. He went on to say his life is not a “spoof,” taking issue (we guess) with parodies of his relationship such as SNL’s Waking Up with Kim and Kanye . “Write that mother-cking headline when you try to make me look like a maniac or an animal, because you afraid of interracial relationships,” he yelled. “Because you afraid of the future, because you afraid of a rapper that was raised by two educated parents.” The speech also touched on corporate greed, his many enemies and his love for his competitors such as Drake.
