AceShowbiz - Kanye West is spending his fall on the road. Fresh off attending the 2016 Met Gala, the rapper called into "The Steve Harvey Morning Show" on Tuesday, May 3 to discuss various topics including his plan to tour his latest album, "The Life of Pablo".
In the interview, 'Ye revealed he might kick off the tour in September. "You know my tour game is strong. My tour game is unprecedented. So we're going to go out in September I believe," he told Steve Harvey.
"And we're just working on some of the ideas right now," he further explained. "But as I said before, I'm trying to literally inspire these kids the way Disney inspired me when I saw the original 'Star Wars'."
"Pablo" came out earlier this year as a Tidal exclusive. The album made its debut on Billboard 200 at No. 1 last month after being made available on other streaming services.
Elsewhere in his 20-minute interview on the show, Kanye discussed what he thought about critics and the prices of his Yeezy clothing line. "There's critics and then there's artists. I kick a critic out the studio," he said of dealing with those criticizing his works. "I didn't read one review on my fashion show. I didn't read one review on 'The Life of Pablo'. The only review is someone waking up in the morning, and listening to 'Ultralight Beam'."
He also promised to drop the prices of his Yeezy collection so everyone could afford it. "That first season, I wasn't in charge of none of those prices. Mark my words, please mark my words," he shared. "I am coming for their neck. I'm about drop these prices in a way that I can connect to the Kanye that I was when I was 14 years old and my mom could barely afford it."
