Kanye West Donda intro

From Donda listening party in Chicago

[sarahm.]

Until you lose someone like a mother or close family member, brother, sister, etc. it’s hard to understand what he could’ve been thinking. He misses his mom and he’s going through one of the hardest things/times in his life. I’m sure this time especially through his divorce he wishes his momma would’ve been there to hold his hand through his darkest of days. God bless Kanye, no matter what anyone says, only the Almighty can judge. Thanks for sharing this video ❤️❤️

This lowkey hit me, when you think about how her heartbeat is slowly & rapidly beating then suddenly it stops.. got some goosebumps

[turf_eater]

the way it slows down, then goes faster, then slower, then stops completely is so chilling

[rowen]

She says it 58 times representing donda's age before passing away and how fast/slow she says donda is supposed to represent her heartbeat pattern before her passing, so this track still has meaning no matter how dumb it may sound without knowing the symbolism it has.

This intro gives me goosebumps everytime i listen to it.
" Rest In Peace " Kanye's mom❤🕊

[Christell-]

If you guys don't know donda is Kanye's mom, she died and these were her heart beats at her final moment, the audio says donda 58 times which is her age, explains why there is a dove at the end.

[Krillwifu]

To young to die and make a impression never to be forgotten. Donda past away in 2007 and Kanye gave her the memorial. The tribute to his late mother. May she rest. May her soul live on. Rest In Peace Donda

It's a tribute to his mom, whatever hater would say Kanye is like one of most influential rapper in this time and universe, he got blessed to live as himself.

[Vinetriaa]

I love this for some reason, it’s giving energy to her name and calling on her spirit

[creditbossbusinesscredit]

I couldn’t imagine the feeling it’s not even my mom but it still hits me in my chest like a 12 gauge. My mom is my best friend I can’t even fathom the pain. YE bless🙏🏾 you brotha and thank you for being so transparent with us!

[GLOOPYSUN]

Just from this, it made me realized how powerful and talented Kanye is. Almost breathtaking

[sharesha]

I lost my mother 8 months ago to cancer and COVID. I know exactly how he feels. He never healed from his mother’s death. They were so close and her passing was so sudden. He is lucky to even have the sound of his mothers final moments. I wish I could’ve held my mothers hand on her way to the lord. Due to COVID precautions she was all alone. It makes me sick to my stomach everyday. Kanye you can cry out anyway you want. Grieve as long as you need to brother! ❤️

[nemdinisakithma]

No offense but am I the only one who gets anxious and scared when listening to this especially the way it's being said and knowing it's the heartbeat of her during her last moments. Sends shivers down my spine

[PhaetonDurendal]

I've never listened to Kanye Before this. The donda chant popped up in a meme and now I'm obsessed with it. A haunting tribute. May his mom rest in peace.

0:44 "Donda..." last heartbeat 🕊💕

[domdom]

I literally get chills every time I watch this 🙏🏽

[babywoo]

The rapid and slowness really scared me and then when it stopped I literally cried

[HelieineOFF]

Donda the best album I ever heard. This is so insane, Kanye. I love that

[vickey]

I dont wanna come off as ride, but why is this coming off as chilling? Its like negative energy just entered my soul. I was looking over my shoulder and had to pray for my soul real quick. I know this is his tribute to his mother, but it's also unsettling 🤧

[sushi]

watching this makes me so sad now knowing that those were her last heartbeats, and that the album was named after his momma
