Kanye West (voluit Kanye Omari West) is een Amerikaanse rapper/zanger/producer. Hij heeft ook een eigen platenlabel (GOOD Music).

Hij is bekend geworden door het produceren, onder andere van het album 'The Blueprint' van Jay-Z, en diverse hitsingles van o.a. Alicia keys, Janet jackson en Ludacris.

In 2003 maakte hij zijn eerste singles, in 2004 verscheen zijn eerste album 'The College Dropout'. Sindsdien heeft hij nog 3 albums uitgebracht: 'Late registration' (2005), 'Graduation' (2007) en '808s & Heartbreak' (2008).

In april 2008 verschijnt American Boy in de Top 40, wat zijn grootste hit in ons land wordt. Op zijn lijst van Top 40-hits prijken, naast deze samenwerking met Estelle ook producties samen met Chris Martin, Jamie Foxx, Ne-Yo, Katy Perry en Jay-Z.

In 2015 verschijnen twee samenwerkingen tussen West en Paul McCartney. Eerst Only One en vrij snel daarna ook FourFiveSeconds, een akoestische track waarop ook Rihanna te horen is. Die laatste wordt, na een afwezigheid van ruim twee-en-een-half jaar in de Top 40, zijn 11e hit. Het nummer komt op de tweede plaats en is daarmee de hoogst bereikte positie van West. In 2016 brengt Kanye West het album The Life Of Pablo uit, waarvan Famous de eerste single wordt.

Kanye krijgt te kampen met geestelijke gezondheidsproblemen. Zo breekt hij zijn tournee abrupt af. In 2018 dropt hij twee albums (Ye en Kids See Ghosts). In september schieten de aantallen op YouTube omhoog als hij de track I Love It uitbrengt, een samenwerking met Lil Pump.

In oktober 2019 verschijnt het album Jesus Is King, een muzikale geloofsbelijdenis van Kanye West die in 27 minuten zijn gevoelens in een gospel laat terugkomen. De track Follow God is een van de meest beluisterde tracks van het album.

In 2020 laat Kanye doorschemeren nog in dat zelfde jaar verkiesbaar te zijn als Amerikaanse president. In de zomer is hij te horen op Ego Death, een samenwerking met Ty Dolla $ign, FKA Twigs en Skrillex. Op 29 augustus 2021 brengt Kanye zijn tiende studioalbum genaamd Donda uit. Het album is vernoemd naar zijn overleden moeder. De eerste single van het album is Jail.

Songtekst

Work it, make it, do it, makes us
Harder, better, faster, stronger

(Work it harder, make it better)
N-n-now that that don't kill me
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
Can only make me stronger
(More than ever ever after)
I need you to hurry up now
(Our work is never over)
'Cause I can't wait much longer

(Work it harder, make it better)
I know I got to be right now
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
'Cause I can't get much wronger
(More than ever ever after)
Man I've been waitin' all night now
(Our work is never over)
That's how long I've been on ya

Work it harder, make it better
Do it faster, makes us stronger
(I need you right now)
More than ever ever after
Our work is
(I need you right now)

Lets get lost tonight
You could be my black Kate Moss tonight
Play secretary I'm the boss tonight
And you don't give a fuck what they all say, right?

Awesome, the Christian in Christian Dior
Damn they don't make 'em like this anymore
I ask cause I'm not sure
Do anybody make real shit anymore?

Bow in the presence of greatness
'Cause right now thou has forsaken us
You should be honored by my lateness
That I would even show up to this fake shit

So go ahead go nuts, go ape shit
Specially in my Pastel and my Bape shit
Act like you can't tell who made this new gospel
Homey take six and take this, haters

(Work it harder, make it better)
N-n-now that that don't kill me
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
Can only make me stronger
(More than ever ever after)
I need you to hurry up now
(Our work is never over)
'Cause I can't wait much longer

(Work it harder, make it better)
I know I got to be right now
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
'Cause I can't get much wronger
(More than ever ever after)
Man Ive been waitin' all night now
(Our work is never over)
That's how long Ive been on ya

Work it harder, make it better
Do it faster, makes us stronger
(I need you right now)
More than ever ever after
Our work is
(I need you right now)
(Me likey)

I don't know if you got a man or not
If you made plans or not
If God put me in ya plans or not
I'm trippin', this drink got me sayin' a lot

But I know that God put you in front of me
So how the hell could you front on me?
There's a thousand you's, there's only one of me
I'm trippin' I'm caught up in the moment, right?

'Cause this is Louis Vuitton dime night
So we gon' do everything that Kan like
Heard they'd do anything for a Klondike
Well I'd do anything for a blonde-dike

And she'll do anything for the limelight
And we'll do anything when the time's right
Uh, baby you're makin' it
(Harder, better, faster, stronger)

(Work it harder, make it better)
N-n-now that that don't kill me
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
Can only make me stronger
(More than ever ever after)
I need you to hurry up now
(Our work is never over)
'Cause I can't wait much longer

(Work it harder, make it better)
I know I got to be right now
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
'Cause I can't get much wronger
(More than ever ever after)
Man Ive been waitin' all night now
(Our work is never over)
That's how long I've been on ya

Work it harder, make it better
Do it faster, makes us stronger
(I need you right now)
More than ever ever after
Our work is
(I need you right now)

You know how long I've been on ya?
Since Prince was on Apollonia
Since OJ had isotoners
Don't act like I never told ya

Don't act like I never told ya
Don't act like I never told ya

Don't act like I never told ya
Don't act like I never told ya
Uh, baby you're making it
(Harder, better, faster, stronger)

(Work it harder, make it better)
N-n-now that that don't kill me
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
Can only make me stronger
(More than ever ever after)
I need you to hurry up now
(Our work is never over)
'Cause I can't wait much longer

(Work it harder, make it better)
I know I got to be right now
(Do it faster, makes us stronger)
'Cause I can't get much wronger
(More than ever ever after)
Man Ive been waitin' all night now
(Our work is never over)
That's how long Ive been on ya

Work it harder, make it better
Do it faster, makes us stronger
(I need you right now)
More than ever ever after
Our work is
(I need you right now)

Work it harder, make it better
Do it faster, makes us stronger
