It’s been a few days since Kanye West’s inspired performance of “Hey Mama” at this past Sunday’s Grammy Awards, and I think everyone will agree that it was the nights most touching of all the performances. Not only was the performance a great tribute to his recently deceased mother, but it also produced a more intimate version of the song. After seeing Kanye do the song, I listened to the “Hey Mama” version off Late Registration and it wasn’t the same; I had to have the live version. Well, here it is (along with video of the performance in case you missed it) I love you Momma!
