Rant be gone: Kanye swears he's done complaining for 2014

SHARE Rant be gone: Kanye swears he's done complaining for 2014

It’s not quite New Years but Kanye West has already given us his resolution.

Or, rather, he gave the fans at his Dec. 23 Toronto concert his resolution. During his concert rant – something he’s done at nearly every show on his Yeezus tour – he informed fans that for six months he is going to keep it positive for 2014. In exchange for this relative quiet, he will focus his energy on the creative process.

“I’m gonna tell y’all right now,” he told the crowd, “that all of the ideas, what they call the rants the streams of consciousness that I express, I told y’all, save those tapes and everything because I’ve decided to completely focus everything in 2014, on new ideas and on creative outlets. I’m not [going to] ever bring up Nike again, and the only way I’ll bring them up is in a positive light … I’ll never bring up the Grammys again in a negative light, because I actually appreciate the 21 Grammys that I did win.”

Then, according to radaronline.com, he went on to curse out the Grammy judges.

All’s well that ends well, right?
