Kanye West covered up in a balaclava in chilly New York City on Sunday after delivering a rant against the media during his latest concert.

The Stronger singer was spotted leaving a fashion design studio wearing dark leather trousers and black boots.

Kanye went on a two-minute rant targeting the media on Saturday night during his Yeezus concert at the Prudential Center in Newark, according to an article on Saturday in TMZ.

'So every media out there. I don't care who you are, TMZ, E!, don't play yourself,' the fiance of 33-year-old reality star Kim Kardashian yelled to the crowd.

He singled out Saturday Night Live for recent skits poking fun of him and Kim.

'Lorne Michaels,' he said in reference to the creator and producer of Saturday Night Live. 'Respect it as such.'

Kanye during his profanity-laced tirade urged those who would disrespect him in the media to listen to his rant before doing so.

Headline writers who 'try to make me look like an animal or a maniac' do so because they are afraid of inter-racial relationships, the rapper declared.

He also claimed he was being maligned because the media is 'afraid of the future and 'afraid of a rapper who was raised by two educated parents.'

Kanye during a concert on Thursday night in Pennsylvania ranted for nearly four minutes about two radio DJs - Charlamagne of The Breakfast Club and Sway of Sway In The Morning - who had called him 'egotistical' during their shows.

The rapper and his reality TV star girlfriend Kim on Saturday night were spotted out on a date in snowy New York City. They both welcomed baby daughter North last June.
