    Kanye West was born in Atlanta, Georgia,[18] where he lived with his parents. When he was three years old, his parents divorced, and he and his mother moved to Chicago,

    Illinois.[19] His father was Ray West, a former Black Panther who was one of the first black photojournalists at The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and is now a Christian

    counselor.[19] West's mother, Dr. Donda West, was a Professor of English at Clark Atlanta University, and the Chair of the English Department at Chicago State University

    before retiring to serve as West's manager. He was raised in a middle-class background, attending Polaris High School[20] in suburban Oak Lawn, Illinois after living in

    Chicago.[21] When asked about his grades in high school, West replied, "I got A's and B's. And I'm not even frontin'".[22]

    West attended art classes at the American Academy of Art in Chicago, and also enrolled at Chicago State University, but dropped out to focus on his music career.[23] While

    attending school, West produced for local artists. He later gained fame by producing hit singles for major hip hop/R&B artists, including Jay-Z, Talib Kweli, Cam'ron, Paul Wall,Common, Mobb Deep, Jermaine Dupri, Scarface, The Game, Alicia Keys, Janet Jackson, John Legend among others. He also "ghost-produced" for his mentor Deric

    Angelettie, according to his song "Last Call" and the credits of Nas' "Poppa Was a Playa".

    Kanye West's first career productions came on Chicago rapper Grav's 1996 debut album Down to Earth. West produced eight tracks on the album. While the album did not

    attract much attention and would be the only album released by Grav, West would soon be producing for higher profile artists. In 19981999 he produced for well-known artists

    such as Jermaine Dupri, Foxy Brown, Goodie Mob, and the group Harlem World.

    Kanye West and designer Alexis Phifer ended their 18-month engagement in 2008. The couple had been dating on and off since 2002, with West eventually proposing in

    August 2006. According to a friend, the couple's relationship had become increasingly strained, burdened by the sheer amount of time and attention West was dedicating to

    his current concert tour. "It's always sad when things like this end, and we remain friends," Phifer told People.

    West was involved in a near fatal car crash while driving home from the recording studio. The crash provided inspiration for West's first single, "Through the Wire".[28] West's

    faith is apparent in many of his songs, such as "Jesus Walks", which became a staple at his benefit performances, such as the Live 8 concert. These songs were featured on

    West's debut album, The College Dropout, which was released on Roc-A-Fella Records in February 2004, and went on to receive critical acclaim. The album also defined the

    style for which West would become known, including wordplay and sampling.[28] The album was eventually certified triple platinum. Guest appearances included Jay-Z,

    Ludacris, GLC, Consequence, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, and Syleena Johnson.

    was named by Timeas one of the 100 best albums of all time.[3] In its July 4, 2008 issue, Entertainment Weeklylisted College Dropoutas the fourth best album of the past 25

    years.[73] The magazine later listed the album as the best album of the decade.[74] The magazine also ranked it number one on its list of 10 Best Albums of the Decade.[75]

    It introduces the album's themes of decadence and hedonism,[44] with West musing how "the plan was to drink until the pain was over / But whats worse, the pain or the

    hangover?"
