Information on the rapper
Kanye Omari West was born on June 8, 1977. He is an American hip hop recording artist, songwriter, record producer, film director, doctor, entrepreneur, and fashion designer from Chicago, Illinois. West first gained prominence as a producer for Roc-A-Fella Records; he achieved recognition for his work on rapper Jay-Z's The Blueprint (2001), as well as hit singles for musical artists including Alicia Keys, Ludacris, and Janet Jackson. His style of production originally used high-pitched vocal samples from soul songs incorporated with his own drums and instruments. He later broadened his influences to include 1970s R&B, baroque pop, trip hop, arena rock, folk, alternative, electronica, synthpop, industrial, and classical music.

Kanye is also famous for his various controversial incidents, such as publicly humiliating Taylor Swift at the VMAs, his marriage with Kim Kardashian, the odd choice of his daughter's name "North West", and for saying that George W. Bush "doesn't care about black people" on live television.

In May, 2015, Kanye received an honorary doctorate from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where he was recognized for his "transformative, genre-defying work".

Lyrics
Well, you're about to be right now!

I'm the ghost of what's right now!

(Aah!) Just take a lesson from Yeezy!

You're missing the point, Ebeneezy!

There's more to life than your work; take it easy!

Even I can make time for Azizy!

Best put some friends on your wish list

'Cause you don't know the spirit of Christmas!

If you did, then you would, at this moment, (aah!)

Be sharing your money with some of the homeless!
