Kanye West has opened up about the death of his mother on his official blog, saying she taught him to enjoy life.
Kanye, who is gearing up for his ‘Glow In The Dark’ tour said that he recorded his first new material in over six months just two days ago in Japan, and that the tour planning process has helped him not to lose his mind after the death of Donda West last November.
West blogs:
“I don't do anything I don't love anymore... I loved the flashing lights vid so it didn't matter 2 me if someone one else didn't. While people chase money I pursue happiness. So many people talk about there investments or how much money they have but there's so many rich people who spend a lot of that trying 2 buy a piece of happiness. If there's anything my mom taught me is to enjoy life. I just recorded my first verse in the last 6 months 2 days ago at Bape's Studio in Japan. It felt good and I was inspired. I absolutely lost my mind (in a good way) on the new Glow in the Dark tour. The constant hours of creating helped me 2 keep from loosing my mind in a bad way. Chris Milk told me tragedy can produce great art and this is definitely true. I am a total mad man now, up till 3 am every night, trying 2 fight pain, board-um, and uncertainty with creativity. All that said, life is good..... good as finding the perfect fabric for a simple one button casual blazer with matching pants.”
The ‘Glow In The Dark’ tour kicks off April 16 in Seattle, WA.
