Kanye West is one of the greatest rappers of the past 20 years and just this week he turned 40! The man we have known for about 15 years now has been a star in the game putting out hit after hit as a hip-hop artist. He may be “over the hill,” but this man has done more than most at this point in his career.
Kanye was born in Atlanta, but grew up in Chicago as we know from a lot of his music. He debuted with “The College Dropout” in 2004 before following it up with a huge album titled “Late Registration.” The latter might be our favorite album of the 2000s. Other albums like “Graduation,” “808s & Heartbreak” and most recently “The Life of Pablo” had a buzz to them while we waited for them to be released.
Do us a favor and pull out that old Kanye album you had and celebrate Kanye’s 40th by listening to it this weekend. You won’t regret it.
