From the clips teasers that have been released so far, Kanye seems to go in depth about his bipolar and extensively gives details on how he feels about his mental health.

In the new clip, Letterman ask questions about Kanye's cerebral, and the intricacies of his mental health.

The hip-hop icon responds:

"I wouldn't be able to explain that as much," admits Kanye.

He continues: "I'm not a doctor. I can just tell you what I'm feeling at the time. And I feel a heightened connection with the universe when I'm ramping up. It is a health issue."

Kanye adds: "This is like a sprained brain. Like having a sprained ankle," he says. "If someone has a sprained ankle, you're not going to push on him more. With us, once our brain gets to a point of spraining, people do everything to make it worse!"

The episode will be premiering later on today (May 31st). Kim Kardashian took to Twitter today and posted a photo of Ye and Letterman.

The reality TV star revealed that her husband Kanye has opened up a lot and we haven't seen this from Ye before.
