Sad News: RIP Kanye’s Moms

Donda West, the mother of Kanye West and former chairwoman of Chicago State University’s English department, passed away Saturday, according to a spokesman for the family. She was 58. [MTV] Sad, sad news. He was mad tight with his mom. We can’t imagine.

Kanye West – “Hey Mama”
Call us sentimental, but this was always our favorite Kanye track. At least she got to hear this excellent tribute.
