After mounted anticipation, Kanye appeared on the live broadcast Wednesday night and revealed what really irked him about Jimmy Kimmel‘s spoof of him.

“Jimmy does his thing. I do my thing. At a certain point, these egos can flare up. We kind of just took it to high school a little bit,” Kanye explained. “If you guys look at the Zane [Lowe] interview, it’s really something extremely fearless for someone in my position to do. Most people bow down to TV, or bow down to these cameras. I could care less about any of these cameras, in all honesty. All I care about is my family. I care about protecting my girl, protecting my baby and protecting my ideas and my dreams and that’s the reason why I went so crazy.” (“Jimmy Kimmel Live!”)

Yeezy also used the opportunity to boast about how much of a genius he is.

“I’m not running for office. I’m just here to make good music and make people feel good when they hear my music. When I did that interview, I was really vocal about a lot of the things I’ve been dealing with over the past ten years, in classification of just a celebrity, because for me, I’m a creative genius,” Ye added. “There’s no other way to word it. I know you’re not supposed to say that about yourself. I say things the wrong way a lot of times, but my intention is always positive. I want to bring more things to the world. I want to help the world.” (“Jimmy Kimmel Live!”)
