Kanye West Thanks Jay-Z And Beyonce For Backing Him During 'Darkest Hours'
Despite his turbulent relationship with the public and an ever-changing public image, Kanye West took the time to thank his support team at a recent gig in his hometown of Chicago.
The Grammy winner, who has also leads the number of nominations for next years ceremony, thanked Jay-Z and Beyonc for standing by him, just wanna thank Beyonc and Jay-Z for standing by me in my darkest hours and you, Chicago, for standing by me in my darkest hour and giving me reason to feel like I should stay alive when the world thought I should die.
He also praised his late mother who died in 2007 at the age of 58 after undergoing plastic surgery procedures, saying: "I wanna dedicate this show to the lady that brought me to Chicago at age three, the first black female chair of the English department at Chicago State University, Dr. Donda Claire Ann West."
"I know she up there looking down right now and she helped me get through these past four years, when America turned they back on me."
Still defiant, he added, "when the world turned they back on me for tellin' ya'll the motherf**king truth - and now I'm leading the Grammy nominations."
