Much respect to Kanye for this song for his mom. I'd be so proud to have a son like him. All the haters can just sit back in their boring, meaningless lives while he keeps on climbing charts & fulfilling all of his dreams.
Given the messed up relationship im in with my mom...This song still reminds me of how much I should appreciate and love my mom, despite the things that have happened. This song made me cry and I hope everybody out there try to make things better with their parents regardless of their situation. If your parents have passed away and you think it's too late to make peace with thim...it's not.
I think he did change from when his mom died but in a good way he got more in touch with his emotion and shit and did what he wants and not givin a fuck i think hes got not better cuz hes always been good but more diverse if that makes sense
He is amazing as a performer but garbage as a person. He is a racist POS, imo. His mother died because of his racism. He went out of his way to find a black doctor to perform the procedure on his mother because he did not want to give his money to a white doctor. If he would have gone to a good white doctor, your beloved mother would still be here. And you know it!
Does anyone have a copy of the version where he has the first verse or two and when he says "can the choir please give me a verse of you are so beautiful to me" it transitions to Joe Cocker's song? It was release well before the late registration album and I used to have a copy but lost it and now cannot find it anywhere. Reply to this comment if you have a copy or know where I can find one please!
Kanye West is bad! he has music that inspires, I know alot of people dont like his music, why are they hating because he dont make soulja boy music??? His lyrics have meaning, they are not just dance songs like a lot of the younger people like today.
Still my mamas ringtone to this day, shes had the same ringtone for about 2 years now and it has been Hey Mama im not even a Kanye fan but he killed this. RIP Mama West
....I know i love you so, and i'll never let you go, I wrote this song just so you know, no matter where you go, my love is so...MAMA.
It was meant for you to make this song Kanye. Your mom will take this song with her anywhere she goes, and she will always know how much you loved her. Cause we all know how much you loved her. A chemistry that is unbelievable.
I love you Kanye..I never want to meet you, I'm kinda scared of you. But words cannot describe how incredible you are as an artist.
That is without a doubt the highlight of his life. I envy him for being able to put what we all feel in to a song and sing and dance with his mom. I get choked up when i see this video. R.I.P. Donda West
i dont even know them personally but it hurts me to heart to see this. I tear up everytime i watch the two together. i just keep thinkin how much he miss enjoying her company. I thank the Lord I still have my momma. I believe it is so painful that i would rather leave this world b4 my momma or my kids
@TheYoungblud why is it? its shows a world class artist taking the time to honor his mother, in song
the song is a permanent reminder of his love for his mum, surely this video is a dedication, its tasteful and emotional and exactly what jay-z wanted to convey?
this is my favorite song from Kanye. I lost my mom to cancer 8 months ago, and i listen to this to help me get though it... its tough. great song though
I hate that his mom was taken away from like that. It really seems like it effected him negatively. God, his latest albums, though still excellent, are overall more depressing compared to his first few.
This makes me so happy seenin my man kanye lovin this, and so damn sad cause it shows how much he cared for his mom and hard it musta been when she died. Much respect to ye. My beautiful dark twisted fantasy is an AMAZING album
man this song always touches my soul! i havent seen my mother in 17 monts cuz shes in prison and when this song comes on i cant help but let some tears out... and this video where he has his mother come up on stage and sing to her is just... heart warming. he might be a douche but he like all of us
Wow listening to this song makes me feel andsound stupid considering I treat my mom like shit and she's the only person that gets me anything I want and I good that for granted:,( i'm a douche-bag
Kanye Fan 4 Life.. i tear up everytime i hear this track! fuck da haters.. how many rappers sing to the woman who made them possibe.. he human like evry1 else.. and i cudnt stop laughin when he dissed taylor.. it wasnt nice but he read my mind...
