Kanye West admits that Glastonbury performance left him feeling ‘depressed’

Kanye West has said that his Glastonbury headline set left him feeling ‘depressed’.

The rapper admitted that he ‘completely messed up’ the lyrics during his 2015 appearance at the music festival, which left him feeling ‘nervous’.

In a revealing new interview with Radio One’s Annie Mac, West opened up about his controversial headlining performance.

“It was incredible. I started off the show and I completely messed up the music... I'm a bit of a perfectionist,” he said.

“So it really put me into a slightly depressed state and it put me back in the position of when I was in high school and I got fired from my job, or when I played my music for R. Kelly and he told me he was going to sign me.

“Three months later I didn't have any money I couldn't afford a haircut, I couldn't take my girlfriend to the movies and I'm still in my mumma's bedroom, working on beats and I was that close to being signed by R. Kelly.”

Talking about how his nerves kicked in while up on the Pyramid Stage, he added: “'I don't usually get nervous, I prepare, I get fully prepared.

“When that music messed up in the beginning it tapped into my nerves and when you're nervous or vulnerable something special and something different can happen.”

In the forthcoming interview, which is set to air on Monday, West also talks about family life, his ambitions to run for President and IKEA furniture.

“I have to work with IKEA - make furniture for interior design, for architecture and I know that if I do a minimalist apartment inside of a college dorm where the TV goes on the side of the wall,” he told Mac.

“Yo IKEA, allow Kanye to create, allow him to make this thing because you know what, I want a bed that he makes, I want a chair that he makes - I want more products from Ye.”
