Background
Biography
He got his start back in the third grade when he discovered his passion, writing and rhyming.
He progressed and began making beats when most kids were still playing hide and seek on the play
ground. His favorite past time became an occupational goal as a teenager when he came across NO I
.D. a Chicago beat mastering producer who at the time produced an up in coming rapper who at the
time went by the name Common Sense (now Common). This was a chance encounter that would become the
pivotal opportunity to shape his future career in music. NO I.D. encouraged Kanye to sample from
soulful old school hits and revive them with a new school flavor. In a MTV interview, Kanye explains,
"NO I.D. told me 'you need to sample off records' when I found that out, it was all over."
Kanye was signed to ROC-A-FELLA in 2002; the reality of a fathomable vision finally came in to view.
Several big name labels had courted him at the time including Cash Money Millionaires,
but the “R-O-C" had the stepping-stone he was looking for. Rather than his wildest dream come true,
Kanye saw this as a calculated step to achieve the goals he had implemented for himself.
"I am always confident in myself that what I put my all in, I could do it", he tells the MTV reporter.
This is also the unwavering confidence he fiercely brings in to the ring to fight for an MC heavyweight title.
This direction was put on the backburner for while but he always intended to step in the studio as an artist once
his career as a producer took off. His focus is to establish himself as a dynamic one man, bringing the rhymes and
the rhythm with innovation and originality
