I said, 'It's Beck, it's on an album called Morning Phase, I think you've heard of it…' We just burst out laughing. And he says, 'Hey, sometimes I'm wrong'."
Kanye had of course protested Beck winning the Grammy Award for Best Album for Morning Phase, initially joke-rushing the stage and later saying that the singer-songwriter should have "respected artistry" and given his prize to Beyoncé.
The rapper later gave Beck a public apology.
Beck had taken Kanye's interruption in good humour at the time, saying: "You can't please everybody, man.
"I still love him and think he's genius. I aspire to do what he does."
