In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Madonna opened up about her experience working musically with Kanye West on her latest album, "Rebel Heart." 

"He's a brilliant madman. He can't help himself. Like, he doesn't have the same filters other people have," Madonna revealed. "He has to blurt things out -- he's always saying inappropriate stuff."

But despite his brilliance, Madonna also confessed that West is a bit unfocused when it come to working solely on one thing. Given his family life and the many business ventures he is involved in, West tends to stretch himself too thin at times, Madonna explained.

"But he also has brilliant ideas, if you can get him to pay attention long enough, working with him in the studio. He would come and go," Madonna revealed. "He would drive me bonkers, because he's got so many things going on in his life. And this seemed to be the theme of my record, working with people who can't get off their phone, can't stop tweeting, can't focus and finish a song. It drove me crazy. But when they did pay attention, it was brilliant."

And though Madonna describes West as "brilliant," she did offer the rapper advice in regards to his all too common public outbursts at award shows.

"Don't go to awards shows looking for justice," Madonna advised. "That's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Just go and have fun. I never got too engaged with who wins awards or not, because I don't honestly think it's that important. So that part of him I can't relate to. Like, what's the point of fighting for somebody to ... like, 'This person should have got it?'... I think sometimes he takes things too seriously."

West has yet to respond to Madonna's words of advice.

Madonna's Rolling Stone cover story comes on the heels of her apology for comparing herself to Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela as promotion for her new album.

Prior to her Facebook apology, Madonna posted a slew of Instagram photos of revolutionaries and world leaders sporting the same face mask she wore for her "Rebel Heart" album cover.

Although she did not directly compare herself to the likes of Mandela and King, online social media users still blasted the "Like a Virgin" singer for suggesting that she is in the same category as some of the world's greatest revolutionaries.

Despite the backlash, Madonna chose not to delete the photos and issued a Facebook apology instead and clarified the meaning behind the photos.
