Good breeding+nice clothes does not a rapper make. Which is why almost five years ago, the idea of Kanye West being a Grammy-winning rap and hip-hop artist is almost amusing. “It was a strike against me that I didn’t wear baggy jeans and jerseys and that I never hustled, never sold drugs,” West, who grew up in a middle class Chicago neighborhood, has griped.
In 2002, after producing for artists such as Mase, Cam’ron and Jay-Z he approached Roc-A-Fella records then CEO Damon Dash about launching a solo career and was met with silence.“Kanye wore a pink shirt with the collar sticking up and Gucci loafers,” recalls Damon Dash. “It was obvious we were not from the same place or cut from the same cloth.”
