Kanye West Issues Statement on Mother’s Death, T.I. Writing New LP From Home, Linkin Park Frontman Returning to Side Project

11/13/07, 9:31 am EST

  • Kanye West released a statement last night about his mother’s death saying, “Kanye West, his family and friends would like to thank everyone for the outpouring of support and kind words that have come in from across the country since the death of his mother, Dr. Donda West … In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Dr. West’s name to the Kanye West Foundation/Loop Dreams Teacher Training Institute.” Donda died Saturday of what is believed to be complications from plastic surgery, although the surgeon who claims he operated on Donda says he did nothing wrong. An autopsy is scheduled for later this week.
  • Britney Spears partnered with photo agency X17 to auction off an autographed copy of Blackout on eBay. Proceeds will go to UNICEF, and Spears told X17, “This seemed like the perfect opportunity to give the fans a chance to bid on something to help children everywhere.” Sean Preston and Jayden James are currently looking to relocate to “everywhere.”
  • T.I. is making the most of his time under house arrest by writing a new album he’s calling Paper Trail. The Atlanta MC reportedly began work two and a half weeks ago, after his engineer was granted permission to visit T.I.’s home, and the album is slated for a 2008 release.
  • Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington has confirmed he will return to Dead by Sunrise, the side project he put on hold while working on LP’s Minutes to Midnight. Bennington told the Pulse of Radio he will do some work during the holidays, but the Sunrise album won’t be completed until next spring.
  • Boy George (a.k.a. George O’Dowd) has been formally charged with false imprisonment related to an April incident in which O’Dowd allegedly chained a main to a wall of his London home. O’Dowd was released on bail and is due back in court November 22nd.

There’s an appropriate time and place for jokes – and this topic is not one of them. The donations to the training institute in lieu of flowers is a thoughtful gesture. Remember that what you send out into the universe will come back at you 10-fold.

Hey “skanky” why do you make fun of people who english might be their second language?

Let’s let your white ass have a head start of 20 minutes trying to get over the Mexican border, and if you’re not in the US by then, you get riddled with bullets by border security!!!

We’ll see how much you like that shit, huh?

“Remember that what you send out into the universe will come back at you 10-fold.”

How do you know it’s 10 fold? Maybe it’s 8.6 fold. Maybe 14.8659 fold. I don’t trust your statistics. You don’t seem to be that smart to me.

And since you’re a fuckin’ dumbass, I don’t think you should be playing around with Einsteinian equations.

You could start a worldwide earthquake and I’ll be forced to kick your scrawny fourth grade educated ass, punk!

You are in my prayers Kany; my mother taught at Chi State—
*Know that the true Pharaoh King is for one with these prayers, as are you at one with the Pharaoh King.-

Thank you, Metal Shawn G, for your participation in the psychology analysis experiment.

Condolences to Kanye’s family.

My heart goes out to you! no money, no fame, no woman, no man, can replace the love u have for ur mother and the love recieved back from your mother. If a person haven’t lost their mother they wouldn’t understand. I cry for u because you have to be so stong alone, it makes u wonder who can u turn to because before any of us knew u, SHE was there and now she is gone.Love You—check me out–myspace/cgsworld
