Kanye West: Its a wrap

It seems Kayne West apologised for calling George Bush a racist and Bush replied saying that ‘he appreciates it, and ‘he doesn’t hate him’

The men appeared on NBC's Today Show, speaking separately to the host.

During a telethon in 2005, West expressed his views about the Hurricane Katrina devastation saying that Bush "doesn't care about black people".

In the TV apology West said ‘he made the statement in a moment of frustration but didn’t have the grounds to call him a racist’. Adding, "But I believe that in a situation of high emotion like that, we as human beings don't always choose the right words. And that's why I'm here."

But the ‘love in’ was short lived when West accused the show’s host Matt Lauer of setting him up, accusing him of manipulation. In later tweets West claims that his answers were forced out of him and as a consequence he's resolved to give the press a wide step.
