Kanye West

Kanye West successfully performed "Hey Mama" in his Glow in the Dark tour, this time in London's O2 Arena (See Video).  During a previous concert in Paris Kanye tried to perform "Hey Mama" but broke into tears and couldn't finish the song.  Kanye attended funeral services for his mother Donda West last week in Oklahoma. He has however decided to continue to perform before eager crowds in Europe as part of his Glow in the Dark tour.     

With images of angels projected behind him at O2, West "delivered a strong but emotional rendition of the song in almost complete darkness – the only time TV screens on either side of the stage were switched off," reports People magazine. Kanye dedicated the song to his mother as the crowd cheered him on, and then added, "I got pretty far with that song today, I got pretty far." The next song, Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'," was also dedicated to his mother.Kanye West performing "Hey Mama" at London's 02 Arena (Nov. 22, 2007)
