While he feels bad for interrupting Taylor's speech at 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, the 'Heartless' rapper says, 'I feel like when Taylor was getting all those magazine covers, she was all good then.'

Kanye West has claimed his treatment of Taylor Swift made her more famous. While the controversial rapper admitted his behavior, when he stormed on stage at the MTV Video Music Awards during Taylor's Best Female Video acceptance speech and ranted that Beyonce Knowles should have won, was unacceptable, he claimed it helped make the country singer even more popular.

"I feel like when Taylor was getting all those magazine covers, she was all good then," he said. "I feel completely empathetic and sympathize with that moment of her feeling bad, that spawned her to have one million magazine covers and be the most popular artist in the world, but in that moment of her feeling bad, I do feel bad about being the cause of that."

Although the "Runaway" hitmaker apologized to the 20-year-old songstress, he claimed interruptions at awards shows happen all the time. Speaking on U.S. radio show "Mojo in the Morning", he said, "When I talked to Taylor I asked her, 'What do you feel?' ... and I said we know I was rude, I'm sorry, I cut you off. Awards shows play music...they cut people off all the time.' "

The 33-year-old star, who took an extended break from music after the incident, revealed he now hopes to move on. He explained, "Personally, I'm better than I've ever been. I'm patching up my public image and where I am as an artist and where people perceive me."

“You know, I hate to sound self-involved but I feel like I haven’t peaked yet. I have a lot to give still. I still look the part… I still got it. I’m getting ready to work on stuff for Mary J. Blige… Kanye and I are gonna continue to work together. We’re doing some stuff for Jay-Z’s new album that’s coming out in the spring, and then after Jay’s thing I’m gonna start recording my new album…Kanye should be working on that, too.”

“I stress that the incident wasn’t about Taylor personally,” he explains in the story. “And it definitely wasn’t about race. Where I messed up is, at the end of the day, it’s your show, Taylor. It’s your show, MTV.”

“The relationship with the public and with your fans is like the relationship with your girlfriend,” he adds. “How could I not, at a certain point, be like, ‘I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have been at the awards show. I’m sorry.’ Not that I don’t deserve to get beat up or change who I am inside, to make sure that that doesn’t happen again.”

Mr. West said that, following his VMA outburst, he immediately dedicated himself to the studio. “I knew I wasn’t in a great spot publicly after the incident, but I would just block it out and work as hard as possible and let my work be my saving grace,” he shared. “In a way, I had thrown a Molotov cocktail at my own career, and it gave me an opportunity, for the first time, to go away and find out who I was. Because I felt very alone.”
