MY NEW BOOK!
10.25.2007

It's dope....10 bucks. I teamed up with co-author J. Sakiya Sandifer to make my literary debut with Thank You And You're Welcome!, an entertaining volume of "Kanye-isms "-- the creative, humorous and insightful philosophies and anecdotes used in creating my path to success. It captures the same wit, playful irony, and piercing insight found abundant in my lyrics. In Thank You And You're Welcome! I deliver my personal message uncensored, without any five-second delay or media distortion. I'll post some sample pages within a week...

ericajohnson | October 26, 2007
Yea, I remember reading about this. Another idea of mine you unknowingly stole. LOL Congratulations. I might read it for free at Barnes & Noble while drinking a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino and swing back here with a review for you. LOL
SpenceHollywood | October 26, 2007
That's definitely a good format for your first "book"... so many modern recording artists would just get the ghostwriter from the NYTimes Music section, write a corny "MTV Biography" that has alot of words but doesn't really say anything, and call it a day. This accentuates the down to earth side of you that many of us true fans know.
SwaggahK | October 26, 2007
i agree completely with SpenceHollywood!
JThirdBirdsTheWord | October 27, 2007

Kanye,
My prayers go out to you and your family.
I could imagine the hurt you feel to lose your creator.
Hold your memories, release your pain and love the life she created for you.
Everyday you live a part of her is living.

Kanye, I, on behalf of Untouchable Records, Inc., keep you in prayers regarding your loss. I'm nearly at a loss for words right now except to say that the news came to us all as a mighty blow. I was trying to find a more suitable topic within the blog home to express sorrow; still, I hope this helps. Stay strong, brotha'.

Kanye, I just want to extend heart felt condolences to yourself and your family. I pray that god continues to keep you strong, and lifts your heart of it's sorrow during this difficult time. Your memories of your mom will never perish. I hope they provide you great comfort and peace of mind . love your fan Raevett, Phoenix AZ

Kanye,
I wanted to say that my heart goes out for you in this difficult time. I knew when I heard the horrible news; I had to tell you that you have a lot of support in Chi-town… We DO “think about you now and then.” You’re a rapper, and even a role-model, but at the end of the day you’re still a son; and from one son to another, I can’t even begin to understand what you may be going through. Just know you have another angel above watching out for your good fortune! Wish you the Best…
Your friend,
Manny J
P.S. I work for a not-for-profit college in the south loop and a lot of students at Robert Morris College also encouraged me to send: “Best Wishes to You and your Family.”
SuperStar5413 | November 15, 2007
God Bless You Kanye.
Now that that don't kill you can only make you stronger.
Be Strong during your crisis. Stay there for your family in their time of need. Be the man that you mother raised you to be. She's still so proud of you.

Exd 15:2-The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him.
Deu 6:5-Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
Psa 105:4-Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.
Pro 31:25-She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
Hey Kanye, I cannot imagine how you feel, because I don’t know how I would react when I lose my Mother(I can barely think of it), But know that she is with The King of Kings, The Lords of Lords.. Laughing, Rejoicing, Praising Him.. She will be with you always and with her, will be God, they both are watching over you now.. Looking at your Great Work, Laughing when you make a mistake and Proud of you when you Conquer Fears and thoughts.. Pray for Guidance and God will answer with your Mom standing right there. You will see her again for eternity, and that's a LONG TIME!Much LOVE!!
