Kanye West made a stop at Harvard University Sunday night to talk design and creativity.

The rapper, who was in Boston for a stop of the Yeezus Tour, gave a seemingly impromptu talk as part of the DONDA Design Lecture Series.

"I really do believe that the world can be saved through design," he said.

West then acknowledged his over-the-top antics in interviews, saying it all has to do with respecting creativity.

"The reason why I turn up so much in interviews is because I've tasted what it means to create and be able to impact and affect in a positive way," he said, "and I know there's more creativity to happen."

West then gave everyone in attendance tickets to his show that night.
