Kanye West has been giving advice to students at Harvard.

The "Yeezus" rapper made his debut as a guest speaker at the prestigious Harvard School of Design yesterday, before his concert in Boston, and he explained why he's being doing two-hour interviews with the likes of Oprah Winfrey recently.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, he said, "The reason why I turn up so much in interviews is because I've tasted what it means to create and to be able to impact and affect in a positive way, and I know there is more creativity to happen. I know there are traditionalists that hold back the good thoughts and there are people [in] offices that stop the creative people and are intimidated by actual good ideas. And I believe, like, utopia is actually possible. But we're led by the least noble, the least dignified, the least tasteful, the dumbest and the most political. In no way am I a politician; I'm usually at my best politically incorrect and very direct. I really appreciate you guys' willingness to hone your craft and not be lazy."

The 36-year-old, who also promoted his new design company DONDA, was accompanied by fiancee Kim Kardashian, who posted a photograph from the lecture along with the message, "My baby speaking at the Harvard Graduate School of Design."

Kayne reportedly wants the couple's first child North West to study at Harvard rather than pursue a career in the spotlight. "Kanye wants his son or daughter to be educated at a top US university such as Harvard or Yale before embarking on a career in business," a source previously told The Daily Star.
