I remember for the longest time when that don't came out, I thought the niggas name was Kane West.

 

[rip.dilla]

Made me appreciate Chaka Khan's jawn more .. .

Slow jamz

But major props to 'Ye for recording that while he was still recuperating from a shattered jaw . .

 

[jono]

Video on Rap City, thought it was dope and was checkin for him until Work Out Plan dropped

 

[Max.]

The sample caught my ear

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

i was in chicago that summer and heard it on the radio, i think it was the version where he was mumbling cuz his jaw was really fucked up and hadnt healed too much, and i remember the version in the video being a lil clearer, it was dope as hell tho and part of a large amount of dope music i heard that year

 

[5 Grand]

I remember seeing the video and thinking it was hot. But later, when I realized his jaw was actually wired shut and he was literally rapping "Through the Wire" I had to give him props.

When its all said and done, that may be one of Hip Hop's greatest rap deliveries. Think about it, his jaw was wired shut.

 

[TonyDubbz]

I really wasn't into it the first time I heard it but when I finally stopped and took the time to listen, I heard where he was comin from with the lyric and it grew on me. Having the visuals from the video made it grow on me too

 

[king hassan]

[El Payaso]

I dont remember the first time but I remember sitting on the couch being real hyped up telling my mom this guy was in a car accident and actually did this song while his mouth was wired shut and hes from chicago because my moms from there.

 

[T-Rel]

I Was In Full Backpacker Mode Back Then My Thoughts Were:

"The Drums Are Wack As Fuck"

"What A Lazy Producer He Didn't Chop That Shit Up At All"

"This Nigga Got A Wack Flow"

I Actually Saw Ye Live During A Talib Concert When I Lived In The Chi...Lib Let Him Do Like Two Songs..I Though Dude Was Garbage Live Too...

 

[El Payaso]

I saw kanye at the United Center in Chicago on the glow in the dark tour and he dressed like luke skywalker and ran all over the stage and there were a ton of lights and it was bad ass. Probably my favorite show I've ever been to.

 

[ohhhla]

Song sucked

Do you like anyone post '99?

 

[blackgod813]

i bought the cd Anthony Hamilton dropped a lil after great year

 

[32DaysOfInfiniti]

I do, I was sitting there watching Rap City the Bassment after school and saw that shit come on, I was an instant fan, I remember jotting down "Kane West - Through The Fire" on a scratch piece of paper to not forget it and thinkin that was his name for awhile till I heard Jesus Walks

 

[Mr.LV]

Got to put the video up and cousin bang hanging out with kanye west video.

First time i saw it was on BET, i remember thinking the production was strange.

 

[aladdin1978]

I didn't like it when I heard it. The video made me like it, showing the harolds chicken on 103rd and Halsted
