Most would suspect Kanye West to live a pretty interesting life. He’s one of the most critically acclaimed musicians of his generation with 22 Grammys in his sock drawer. He’s a doctorate in fashion whose product re-sells for tens of thousands of dollars on eBay. His wife stars in her own reality television show. His mother-in-law is a trailblazer in the transgender community.

Ask Kanye West, however, and he’ll tell you otherwise. In an interview with New York radio station Hot 97 earlier this week, Kanye admitted “I’m completely boring, actually … I’m so boring.”



“All I do is go to the studio everyday … At this point I’m like, ‘I’m ridin’ through the ‘burbs with no woes.’” He quipped, “I’m not going nowhere with no woes.’ I’m not at the club … I gotta focus on the kids. I gotta take ’em to tap class and gym class.”

His boring domestic life aside, Kanye still has a pretty great day job. In the same interview, he offered an update on the follow-up to Yeezus. The good news? His goal is to deliver another “art project,” he explained, “deliver the innovation that I know can and that I’ve consistently done since 808s and Heartbreak and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.” The bad news? It appears its release isn’t as close as we might hope. “I really want to go away, I’ve been doing a lot of features,” Kanye added. “Right now, I want to take some time to focus on my next album, focus on this next selection, focus on my family. And then be able to recharge, energize, and bring something of value.”
