He also opened up about his struggles with bipolar disorder. Describing it as a “sprained brain,” he told Letterman, “I can just tell you what I’m feeling at the time, and I feel a heightened connection with the universe when I’m ramping up. It is a health issue. This — it’s like a sprained brain, like having a sprained ankle. And if someone has a sprained ankle, you’re not going to push on him more. With us, once our brain gets to a point of spraining, people do everything to make it worse.” Without mentioning Drake, Kanye said that he had a “little beef” with his fellow-rapper last year, quoting the lyrics of ‘Crew Love.’ Talking about Jay-Z, Kanye said that both he and Jay-Z are self-centred, which helps them create rap. “We’re rappers. You’re self-centered. That’s what we do, we tell our story and then people relate to that story.”
