Hey MammaKanye West11rank/position

Hey Mamma-Kanye West

After losing his mother in 2007, he released this song on the album Late Registration.

It starts with memories of moving to Chicago, touches on how he didn’t follow the path his mother wanted, and yet sets his love for the mother who still supported him to a catchy, pop-friendly tune.

Because it’s a song dedicated to his late mother, the lyrics evoke both poignancy and nostalgia, alongside candid feelings of pride in her.

While it’s a rap song, it carries a different kind of intelligence and warmth than gangsta rap.
