In a recent interview with "Details" magazine, rapper Kanye West admits that he developed a sex addiction while in his youth.

"People ask me a lot about my drive. I think it comes from, like, having a sexual addiction at a really young age," West says. "Look at the drive that people have to get sex--to dress like this and get a haircut and be in the club in the freezing cold at 3 A.M., the places they go to pick up a girl. If you can focus the energy into something valuable, put that into work ethic . . . "

"First beat I did," he recalls, "was in seventh grade, on my computer. I got into doing beats for the video games I used to try to make. My game was very sexual. The main character was, like, a giant penis. It was like Mario Brothers, but the ghosts were, like, vaginas. Mind you, I'm 12 years old, and this is stuff 30-year-olds are programming. You'd have to draw in and program every little step--it literally took me all night to do a step, 'cause the penis, y'know, had little feet and eyes."

However he gets his drive - it seems to be working!
