Despite being involved in a legal battle with a paparazzo, Kanye West was happy as can be with our photogs, waving and smiling as he got into his black Lambourghini in Hollywood on Wednesday.

At one point he even warned photographers, "I'm letting you all know, I'm about to drive all the way to Anaheim."

Who knew he could be such a pussycat? Is the hot headed Yeezus performer extending an olive branch to photogs after his highly publicised LAX altercation.

The 36-year-old, who allegedly attacked videographer Daniel Ramos outside LAX in July, was subsequently charged with criminal battery and attempted grand theft. Yesterday court documents claimed that he acted in self defense. According to papers followed by his lawyer, West said that as he was leaving the airport Ramos was trying to provoke him as he attempted to get in his waiting car and that, "his safety was in immediate danger."

Kim Kardashian's main squeeze says that his actions were, "necessary for his self-defense and safety and was justified in doing those acts."

We are just glad to see Kanye and the shutterbugs getting along!
