Hey mama

Hey Mama. This is an older song by Kanye West. It is off his second album, late registration. The song is dedicated to his mom, obviously, about what she meant to him and how he appreciates everything she was and did for him. She actually passed away from complications due to plastic surgery in 2007 and I know this is all old news but I am just giving the background. So here is his grammy version a few months after she died. The youtube version is not the greatest, its classic youtube, some dude filming it straight off the t.v. with the volume going up and everything but it still moves you. The song is good to begin with, but when you think about her death it makes it heartbreaking. The part at the end when he sings "this life is all a dream, so my real life starts when I go to sleep." That is stirring.
