EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS - Kanye West Explains Recent Pap Rage, Tells X17 Photographer, "I Respect You"
Posted on Tue May 31st, 2016 1:20pm PDT By X17 Staff
Kanye West has a soft spot for our photographer -- and we love that about him!
On Tuesday, our camera man caught up with Yeezy, who was wearing a hoodie and black jeans, heading a Los Angeles studio on Tuesday -- and he was in quite a considerate mood! Despite having a spat with slew of shutterbugs over the weekends -- Kanye seems like he's in a great mood in our video. Our favorite part is when the music man checks in with our guy to make sure he gets the shot!
In the video, the rapper calmly and kindly says to our camera man on the scene, "I just want to make sure that you got the shot, because you drove a long way." Yeezy then tries to explain why he lashed out at the paps two days prior, saying, "You know the other day, it's just there's so many guys, I didn't know who you were and everything... You guys are putting in that work in every day, man, I just respect you."
The cordial video comes two days after he lashed out at a group of paparazzi on Sunday when he and Kimbo met up with John Legend and Chrissy Teigen at Nobu in Malibu. The couples brought their children along for the double brunch date, which lasted over two hours. What should have been a nice, mellow afternoon by the beach turned a bit ugly when a few photographers crowded Kimye on the way out of the restaurant, prompting the rapper to lash out in a typical angry Kanye fashion.
Glad 'Ye is in a better mood!
