Kanye West says he's thought about killing himself, but now feels a responsibility to make a meaningful contribution to pop culture and art.
The 33-year-old rapper didn't say when he'd considered suicide.
He told an audience at a screening of his new film Runaway in LA that although there had been times when he "contemplated suicide" he would "not give up on life again".
The star went on to describe himself as a pop icon and "soldier for culture".
He said there were so many people who would never have their voices heard, that he'd "do it for them".
The singer is credited as a director for the 35-minute film, which features portions of nine new Kanye West songs.
The movie is set to premiere this weekend on American cable channels and will accompany his upcoming album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy released on 22 November.
