By the time 2013 rolled around, West seemed to be over the whole situation. The rapper told The New York Times, "[My instinct] has only led me to complete awesomeness at all times. It's only led me to awesome truth and awesomeness. Beauty, truth, awesomeness. That's all it is." He also stated, though, "I don't have one regret," and that, "If anyone's reading this waiting for some type of full-on, flat apology for anything, they should just stop reading right now."
