Kanye West

• I am going to talk about Kanye West : he was born and lived with his parents in Georgia. He moved to Chicago in Illinois when he was 3 years old because his parents divorced. Kanye is a good singer, rapper and record producer. His songs are amazing! His mother, Donda West was a Professor of English in the University at Clark Atlanta. Then, she is the manager of her son, Kanye West. He works with « R&B » and « hip-hop » artists like The Game, Common, Janet Jackson, Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Jay-Z and others...

• Donda West died the 10 November 2007. She had a heart attack. For the first time, Kanye West spoke about the death of his mother : "It was like losing an arm and a leg " he said. After her death, he made an album called « 808's & Heartbreak ».

• Wu-Tang Clan's producer influenced him in his style. Then, on Graduation, his new album, Kanye was inspired from rock like The Rolling Stones, and U2. I like him for his style, his voice, his songs, and his life !

Kevin Kaing.
