Kanye West unleashed yet another stream of consciousness series of tweets. Today's topic: the Grammys.
After requesting a sit-down with Recording Academy president Neil Portnow, the Chicago rapper tweeted his woes about Music's Biggest Night.
"I think the Grammys are super important!!!," he begins. "I know so many cool artists whose hearts have been broken by the politics including mine. We need to fix this."
He also dished out his choices for should-have-been nominees including Dexter Navy, who directed A$AP Rocky's "LSD" video, and Future for his monster hit "March Madness." He also sprinkles in a promise to deliver "free Yeezys" courtesy of Adidas and announces that the follow-up to his seventh studio effort The Life of Pablo will arrive this summer.
What a time.
I would like to sit down with Neil Portnow right now

We need to fix this.

I don't give opinions because they are commonly agreed upon. I say what I feel.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I feel the Grammy awarding system is way off and completely out of touch.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Hi Grammys this is the most important living artist talking.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
If I'm not at the show next year then there is no show.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I don't want to just fix the awards for me but I want to fix it for Dexter Navy who directed A$AP Rocky’s LSD video.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Everybody with any form of taste knows that was the best video of the year!
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Dexter didn't feel he even had a chance of winning and he was right!!!
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
You guys are supposed to be all about taste.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
You like your black people a certain way also. You wouldn't have Future perform and that man owned the clubs last summer.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Has anyone at the Grammys ever heard March Madness??? Yes I have a problem with the Grammys.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
All artists have a problem with it and I am going to fix it for us all starting right now.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Neil please reach out as soon as possible so we can make the Grammys culturally relevant again.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
First order of business. We the people need to see Future at the Grammys.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
We need to see Young Thug at the Grammys. Not just me and Jay in a suit.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
People ask why I speak in a public forum... Well my voice is my power. Freedom of speech. Freedom of opinion. Freedom of dreams.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I'm not crazy I'm free.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
No slave mindset no more. I'm free. I'm free. I'm free.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I wrote Saint Pablo after admitting to my greatest shame my personal debt. But I'm not ashamed anymore.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I'm proud as an entrepreneur that I gave everything I had to my dreams.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I'm happy and free and proud and confident. I'm not crazy. I'm free
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Free from being held back by public opinion.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
It's a beautiful time. I love my friends. I love my family. I love people. The human race.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
You guys will see my heart. You guys will feel my heart. We will make a difference.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
I just had to start with shoes so that I could be economically empowered enough to have a voice.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
What is your definition of true freedom? There is no true freedom without economic freedom.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
Respect to everyone working hard to keep a roof over their kids
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
That is one of the reasons I respect the paps so much.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
And yes I've talked to Adidas and we gon hook y'all up with free Yeezys and Adidas. All positive vibes.
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
New album coming this summer
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) February 24, 2016
The world needs a guy like me. The world needs somebody to not be scared and tell his truth.
