Kanye West has gotten really good at ranting. The man is somewhat of an expert on the subject now; in fact, we can only hope that Kanye will one day rant about going on rants. The way he uses auto-tune so that certain words in his statements get that touch of emotion is brilliant. And the way he suddenly screams out of nowhere—and we're talking blood-curdling screams—is amazing. He's given a lot of them recently (while also wearing a diamond-incrusted luchador mask) as part of the Yeezus Tour. We decided to compile them and break them down:
