Kanye Westhas proclaimed that he is putting his life at risk for his art in his current stage show.

The outspoken rapper, who recently attacked a spoof article about himself, was discussing the on-stage "mountain" he climbs in his Yeezus show with SaturdayNightOnline.

"Like, I'm just giving of my body on the stage; I'm putting my life at risk, literally!

"When I think about when I'm on the Can't Tell Me Nothing, and Coldest Winter moment, like that mountain goes really, really high. And if I slipped...

"You never know. And I think about it. I think about my family and I'm like, wow, this is like being a police officer or something, in war or something."

And parenthood appears to have made Kanye reflect on his own mortality.

He added: "Like you literally going out to do your job every day, knowing that something could happen. Something can happen to you. I'll explain to my daughter one day, that me and her mother, we had to fight for this position that we'll finally have."
