Kanye West’s battle with the media continues. After his pre-taped interview with “Today” show host Matt Lauer turned sour yesterday, the hurt rapper took to Twitter to express his anger and frustration.

“I went up there to express how I was empathetic to Bush because I labeled him a racist and years later I got labeled as a racist,” wrote Kanye, who was speaking when producers started playing a clip of him interrupting Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.

“I don’t mess with Matt Lauer or the Today Show … and that’s a very nice way for me to put it!” he said. “HE TRIED TO FORCE MY ANSWERS. IT WAS VERY BRUTAL AND I CAME THERE WITH ONLY POSITIVE INTENT.”

The interview and past experiences have caused him to trust others less. “I feel very alone very used very tortured very forced very misunderstood very hollow very very misused,” expressed an aching Kanye. “I don’t trust anyone but myself! Everyone has an agenda. I don’t do press anymore. I can’t be everything to everybody anymore.”

I went up there to express how I was empathetic to Bush because I labeled him a racist and years later I got labeled as a racist….

While I was trying to give the interview they started playing the “MTV” under me with audio!!!!!!!

I don’t mess with Matt Lauer or the Today Show … and that’s a very nice way for me to put it!

HE TRIED TO FORCE MY ANSWERS. IT WAS VERY BRUTAL AND I CAME THERE WITH ONLY POSITIVE INTENT.

I feel very alone very used very tortured very forced very misunderstood very hollow very very misused

I don’t trust anyone but myself! Everyone has an agenda. I don’t do press anymore. I can’t be everything to everybody anymore.

I can’t be everybody’s hero and villain savior and sinner Christian and anti Christ!

I can’t take anymore advice!!! I create, I’m creative, I have a good heart, everyone will see and understand one day.

Everything sounds like noise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYTHING SOUNDS LIKE NOISE!!!!!!! I don’t trust anyone!

Very judged very scrutinized very criticized! I want everyone to know I have lows all the time but I make it through them!

Yo I really wonder if Matt Lauer thought that shit was cool to play the “MTV” clip while I was speaking about Bush?

He played clips of Bush and asked me to look at his face while I was trying to talk to him. I wish Michael Jackson had twitter!!!!!!

Maybe Mike could have explained how the media tried to set him up!!! It’s all a fucking set up!!!!

This is rock and roll life my people… you can’t stop the truth you can’t stop the music and I have to be strong or “they” win!!!!

Sometimes it’s not simple, some days it’s not easy… I just want to create. I love you guys, thanks for the support!
