Kanye West Blogs About Arrest, Says He’s ‘Cool With Paparazzi’

According to Kanye West's recent blog post, he's "cool with the paparazzi"... just not the pap that tried to take his picture Thursday morning. The rapper/producer was arrested at the American Airlines terminal at Los Angeles' LAX airport when he, along with with his road manager, allegedly confronted a photographer and smashed the photogs camera to the ground. West and his manager were charged with felony vandalism.

Now, after posting $20,000 bail and leaving Los Angeles via a private jet, West took to his blog. "We back in the lab!!! I'm cool with the paparazzi," West wrote. "This guy wasn't cool. I gotta work now... I'll rant later!" Yeezy is reportedly already back in Honolulu where he's working on his upcoming album, '808's & Heartbreak,' which is set to be released on Dec. 16.
