He once again apologized to Swift and says he has written a song for her, Tweeting: "I wrote a song for Taylor Swift that's so beautiful and I want her to have it. If she won't take it then I'll perform it for her."

West experienced tremendous backlash over the stunt — even President Barack Obama called him a jackass.
