During a nearly 30-minute long speech at his final Yeezus concert of the year in Toronto, Canada, Kanye West declared that he will be taking a "vow of silence" when it comes to voicing his opinion and "talking s**t," Us Weekly reports.
"Everything I'm saying that's not allowed, soak it in right now. This might be the last time y'all hear me talk s**t for a long time," West told the crowd on Monday. "Might be another, like, six months. At least. You're just gonna have to run back the interviews and s**t if you wanna hear some realness! I'm gonna tell y'all right now: All of the ideas, the things they call rants...save those tapes and everything. Because I've decided to completely focus everything in 2014 on all the new ideas, all the creative outlets."
Known for creating controversy over his outspoken views, including his recent comments in which he compared African-Americans and Jews in the entertainment industry, which the Anti-Defamation League deemed "anti-Semitic," and his public boycott of Louis Vuitton and Nike, West declared to his fans that he will never "bring up Nike again," and will only mention them in a "positive light" from now on.
"I actually appreciate the opportunity to have been able to make my own shoe with them, and if I didn't have the opportunity I wouldn't have my deal I have with Adidas right now," he said as his fans cheered. "I'll never bring up the Grammys again in a negative light. Because I actually appreciate the 21 Grammys that I did win. "I'm not gonna be the dude who has all the opportunities in the world and just focuses on the negative and complains about it. So I'm letting y'all know in this last Yeezus show that this is the last time you'll ever hear me say anything negative about anyone. Because you only get the energy that you put out into the world."
As for what he will focus on in 2014, the rapper said that he plans on spending quality time with his fiancee, Kim Kardashian, their six-month-old daughter, North, and his music and art.
