Awww, what a tragic news! It must have been real devastating for Kanye, I pray he gets through this soon because the pain of losing a beloved parent stays with you for a very long time. My sincere sympathy for the family, may God be with them. Luv you Kanye.

This will be a very sad time for him, my heart goes out to him and his family. But a least she got to write a book celebrating the love for her son before she passed and HE will always have that.

Kanye West has never been known for his good attitude, most recently West was arrested for felony vandalism, does this change your opinion of the rapper?
