Switching things up a bit, Kanye wrote the cover story himself for October’s issue of XXL. He also served as the creative director of his own 40-page section. A few Taylor Swift related quotes below.
I stress that the incident wasn’t about Taylor personally. And it definitely wasn’t about race. Where I messed up is, at the end of the day, it’s your show, Taylor. It’s your show, MTV.
The relationship with the public and with your fans is like the relationship with your girlfriend. How could I not, at a certain point, be like, ‘I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have been at the awards show. I’m sorry.’ Not that I don’t deserve to get beat up or change who I am inside, to make sure that that doesn’t happen again.
I knew I wasn’t in a great spot publicly after the incident, but I would just block it out and work as hard as possible and let my work be my saving grace. In a way, I had thrown a Molotov cocktail at my own career, and it gave me an opportunity, for the first time, to go away and find out who I was. Because I felt very alone.
On top of Kanye’s cover story, the issue (on newsstands September 28th) will feature stories on KiD CuDi, the G.O.O.D. Music family, Wiz Khalifa and the Top 10 producers-turned-rappers of all time.

Milking it…
Kanye is so gay
CLEARLY ILLUMINATI!!! LOOK AT THE SYMBOLS! HIP HOP MUSIC IS GOING TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD AND FORCE US TO DO SILLY DANCES AND WEAR COLORFUL CLOTHES! THEY’RE LITERALLY FORCING US TO LIKE JAY-Z AND ONE DAY HE IS GOING TO TAKE OFF HIS HUMAN MASK AND BECAUSE WE’LL BE UNDER HIS TRANCE THE APOCALYPSE WILL BEGIN.
I THINK JUSTIN BEIBER IS IN THE ILLUMINATI TOO! DID U SEE THE IMAGERY DURING HIS SHOW!?
I normally avoid the Hip Hop magazines, like I avoid listening to the radio – but this one could be interesting. I might pick it up if the story isn’t featured on their website or somewhere else … probably not though. Too much garbage around in “Hip Hop” music these days to read about it in a magazine.
Grape Juice > Orange Juice > Apple Juice

I’m a Kanye fan but he looks gay on this cover.
