Kanye West blames Grammys stunt on 'voices in my head' and announces collaboration with Taylor Swift

If you've been suspecting that Kanye West may have lost the plot, then get a load of this.
The rapper gave radio host Ryan Seacrest a rather odd excuse for storming the stage after Beck won the Album of the Year Grammy earlier this week.
"Voices in my head told me 'go' and then I just walked," he said.
Kanye also apologised (sort of) to Beck and announced that he'll be teaming up with another previous awards show target, Taylor Swift.
"Yeah, she wants to get in the studio and we're definitely going to go in," Kanye, 37, said.
Is he worried about damaging his street cred by working with the squeaky-clean 25-year-old pop star?
"I don't discriminate," he added. "I think everyone loves music whether they love hip hop, alternative, country, and if I could be involved in giving people any type of energy, advice in the studio, whether you're Beyonce, whether you're Taylor Swift, whether you're Jay Z, whether you're Beck, whoever, and they can be reciprocal with that, I'd like to be involved with that."
Speaking of Beck, 44, Kanye says he's got nothing but love for the acclaimed musician, despite his post-Grammy comment that Beck "needs to respect artistry".
"Beck is one of the nicest guys and one of the most respected musicians in the game," Kanye said. "So, there's nothing that I will want to do as a fellow musician to disrespect him in any way.
"And when I said that thing about respect artistry, I think it came off the wrong way, and that was a mis-wording on my part because obviously Beck is one the most respected artists and respects artistry."
Now how about a Kanye-Beck collab? That would be some seriously hot stuff.
