Kanye West has appeared on Jimmy Kimmel, after the pair's recent high-profile Twitter spat.
He told the presenter, "I'm not running for office, I'm just here to make good music, to make people feel good when they hear my music. ... I'm a creative genius. There's no other way to word it. I know you're not supposed to say that about yourself, and I say things in the wrong way a lot, but my intention is always positive and I want to bring more things to the world, and help the world, I want to make people's lives easier. ...it's about when I was on earth what did I do. ...I'm more of a messenger than a rapper, if you say rap it sort of undermines it. ...if you look at something like the Zane interview it's really something extremely fearless for someone in my position to do because most people just bow down to TV. ...I care about protecting my family, my girl, my ideas and my dreams."
He continued "I'm totally weird and I'm totally honest and I'm totally inappropriate at times, and the thing is, for me to say I wasn't a genius, I would just be lying to you and to myself."
Kimmel and West clashed after the entertainer did a controversial interview with the BBC's Zane Lowe.
...and Jimmy Kimmel's show did a skit sketch based on the 'intense' interview - watch two kids re-enact the interview at 2mins.
