Born June 8, 1977, in Atlanta, Kanye moved to Chicago with his mother, Donda West, when his parents divorced in 1980. In this video diary documenting a recent visit to his childhood home on Chicago’s Southside, Kanye said, “Always knew it was gonna happen like this … Where I’m at right now is where I was when I was, like, 4 years old. You know, like, first hitting a piano or something like that.”
