Kanye West Screens ‘Runaway’ For U.S. Fans

Tue Oct 19 2010 by Idolator Staff
Almost two weeks after unveiling his debut short film in Paris, Kanye West last night introduced Runaway to American fans, describing the 35-minute production as a piece inspired by a child's perspective. "I feel like I've found my creative sweet spot, to think like a five-year-old at all times," West told a few hundred fans (including approving friends Pete Wentz and Big Sean) in a Los Angeles theater.

But he has only found that sweet spot after a "long, hard year" — in explaining the film, West disclosed that he has contemplated suicide and has suffered the loss of several close relatives. All of which comes as his musical ambitions are as expansive as ever: he mentioned that his new single "All Of the Lights" features 11 superstar artists, and suggested that he might do an album with his cohorts from his recently revived supergroup Child Rebel Soldier. Details on West's big night below: More »
