Kanye West took to his blog in his usual ALL CAPS to set things straight about his new ‘Paranoid’ music video with Rihanna. A video for the song was leaked on the internet earlier this week, but Kanye insists it was an early version, not the final cut:

“IT HURTS ME TO SEE THE OLD AND VERY WRONG VERSION OF THE PARANOID VID GET LEAKED ALL OVER THE NET WHILE I WAS ON AN 11 HR FLIGHT AND COULDN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT’S JUST FRUSTRATING WHEN THIS STUFF HAPPENS BECAUSE I REALLY CARE ABOUT THE PRODUCT AND SINCE VIDS NEVER GET PLAYED ANY WAY YOU MIGHT AS WELL TWEAK THEM AND MAKE THEM AS SPECIAL AS POSSIBLE. THE VERSION THAT GOT LEAKED FROM THE CAMERA PHONE LAST WEEK IS AT LEAST A LITTLE CLOSER TO THE FINAL PRODUCT. THANK YOU EVERYBODY FOR YOUR SUPPORT BUT THAT VID WAS NOT UP TO MY STANDARDS.”
