Kanye West raps with late mom in new documentary

Written by . Published: July 28 2017

Unseen footage of Kanye West rapping with his late mom will feature in a new documentary which debuts in the U.K. on Monday (31Jul17).


The home video shows West in the kitchen with his mother Donda as he raps along to his 2005 hit Hey Mamma, two years before she died from heart complications arising from cosmetic surgery in 2007.

The clip will feature as part of Public Enemies: JAY-Z vs Kanye, a TV special which takes a close look at Kanye's love-hate relationship with JAY-Z.

The New York rap mogul served as Kanye's mentor at the beginning of his career, but the two hip-hop heavyweights have since fallen out and last year (16), West verbally attacked JAY-Z and his wife Beyonce during a concert.

He also accused the couple of turning their backs on him and his wife Kim Kardashian after she was attacked and held at gunpoint during a robbery in Paris, France last year (Oct16).
