Kanye West often gets criticized by the media for his arrogance, but let's not forget there was a time where Yeezy was just his mama's little boy.

In a throwback video, we see a grainy Kanye West rapping alongside his late mother, Donda West—and it's clear to see that not only was she his mom, but she was a fan.

She may also be the parent who gave Kanye his skills, as she raps at the beginning of the video and then again toward the end to "Hey Mama," the hit song that was written just for her.

Watch this video, then call your mom and tell her you love her.
