Between being on daddy duty, filing a lawsuit against YouTube and then having to cancel several concerts on his Yeezus tour, Kanye West looked like he was ready to toss in the towel when X17 photographers caught him out on the town on Friday night.

But he certainly doesn't mind the attention! On Saturday the rapper went the the boxing gym and emerged wearing his controversial Confederate flag jacket. Yeezy doesn't seem to understand what the fuss is about, as he told AMP Radio, “React how you want. Any energy you got is good energy. You know the Confederate flag represented slavery in a way -- that's my abstract take on what I know about it. So I made the song 'New Slaves.' So I took the Confederate flag and made it my flag. It's my flag now."
