Kanye West has caused a stir by launching another of trademark epic on stage rants - this time against Nike. See footage of his lengthy speech below.
West, who used to be branding partners with Nike before leaving to sign a deal with rival Adidas, took six minutes to complain about the way the brand treated him while performing a show of his Yeezus Tour this week at the Bridgestone arena in Nashville, Tennessee.
"Do you know who the head of Nike is?" asked Yeezy, prowling the stage. "No, well let me tell you who he is: His name is Mark Parker, and he just lost culture. Everyone at Nike, everyone at Nike, Mark Parker just let go of culture."

He continued, discussing his Nike Air Yeezy shoe design: "I'm talking directly to you. No miscommunication. Did you not want the Yeezys? Nike would make you believe it was my fault that you couldn't get them, but that was not the case. I wanted there to be as many Yeezys as there was LeBrons, and I wanted them to be at a good price, but that was not my choice, and we're going to change everything. And ... I'm going to create more than you think that any musician in the history of time ever could have."
West confusingly added: "I talked to the head of Disney today. And I talked to the head of Louis Vuitton today. I swear to God on my life, I talked to them both today. I swear to God I talked to them both, and they wished me a Happy Thanksgiving. I said, `I want to talk about something that isn't turkey day. I want to talk about something different. I want to talk about dreaming.'"
Whatever you say, Kanye.
