When MTV chose rapper Kanye West to receive the Video Vanguard award at this year’s Video Music Awards, they had to have known they were in for some mess. After all, who doesn’t know Yeezus will turn the show left if you give him a mic to just talk? From shading MTV for utilizing Taylor Swift to present him the award as a way to get more ratings to telling a story of Justin Timberlake crying, the artist did just that. To top it all off, Kanye closed out his rant speech with an extremely random (and not so obvious as he assumed) announcement of his plans to run for president in 2020. Whether Ye was serious or not is unsure, but perhaps we’ll know for sure in 2020.
