“On this album, I kind of embody Patrick Bateman from ‘American Psycho,’ ” he joked on the show, adding, “You know at the end of the movie [that] he didn’t really kill anyone. [I just liked] the clean aesthetic and the way he was all about labels. I wanted to express all of that in the video.”

The rapper, who sings on the single, explained that he was ready to try a different direction on the upcoming album 808s and Heartbreak, which was recently slated for a November 25 release. “I had all these ideas and I just needed to get it out as an artistic vision,” he said. “I don’t have a rapper’s name, [but] I have really good taste and anyone who likes it probably has really good taste too.”

In addition to opening up about his late mother, Donda West, the rapper also talked a bit about his unlikely turn as an author and the philosophy behind his book, “Thank You and You’re Welcome.”

“I wanted to come up with a theory that applies to my life in 2008, not someone else’s thousands of years ago. I wanted to make a book for non-readers, like myself,” he said. “I only read when necessary, so me and my friend designed this book.”
