Kanye West’s Twitter activity has become a hot talking point over the past few weeks. Sometimes it feels like a day doesn’t go by without the inner thoughts of West being broadcast to his 20 million followers. This has recently included taking aim at former girlfriends/DJs/Pink Floyd’s music producer, apparently revealing his $53million “personal debt”, proclaiming his will to never make a CD again and declaring Will Ferrell’s existence a “blessing”.

In what must have been a moment of reflection, West has now apologised to fans and followers for being “confusing” over the past few weeks.

The 38-year-old acknowledged there’s been “a lot of confusion in the past 3 weeks” but claimed the truth is never heard in a “media world”.

The tweets were part of what West dubbed his "Twitter poetry" as he elaborated on his trip to Sweden, where he was working on his Yeezy website paid a visit to Ikea.

Just to recap, tweets over the past few weeks have included West’s apparent declaration he had $53 million dollars in “personal debt”. In a bid to combat this, he pleaded with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to invest $1billion in “Kanye West ideas” as, after all, he is this generation’s Walt Disney.

Kris Jenner later clarified the “personal debt” claim: “What he was trying to say was that’s what he’s done to spend on his clothing line over the last 15 or 20 years or whatever it’s been,” she told Ellen DeGeneres.

Additionally, West has given his thoughts on the Grammy awards, explained why he chooses to speak up on Twitter, praised Will Ferrell and Leonardo DiCaprio and uploaded a few attention-grabbing photos. After the latter, he was criticised by the DJ Deadmau5, to which West responded by repeatedly calling him “Dead-mow-5” and asking if he could wear a Minnie Mouse version of his trademark headgear to his daughter North’s birthday party.

Perhaps West’s surge in Twitter activity is rubbing off on his wife Kim Kardashian-West. It was actually her Twitter rant that captivated the internet’s attention on Monday after she hit out at Bette Midler, Chloe Grace Moretz and Piers Morgan to defend herself against criticism she received for posting a naked selfie.
