KANYE WEST


Kanye West has been one of the most influential artists in the development of mainstream hip-hop, pop culture, and popular music in the 21st century in general. The rapper gained notoriety in the early 2000s as a producer for Roc-A-Fella Records that produced singles for several artists. In 2004, he released his solo debut album, The College Dropout, which received commercial and critical success and went on to establish a record label, GOOD Music. In the following years, West released several albums such as Late Registration, Graduation, 808s & Heartbreak, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Yeezus, The Life of Pablo, and many more.

The rapper-record producer is one of the best-selling music artists, with his more than 20 million albums and 140 million singles sold globally. Some of West’s credited awards included Billboard Artist Achievement Award, twenty-two Grammy Awards, and Brit Awards, to mention a few. As a successful celebrity, his financial gains increased drastically, and he bought many expensive things. One of them is an Aston Martin DBS, which is fitted with a twin-turbocharged, intercooled DOHC 48-valve V12 engine with a maximum power output of 715 horsepower and 663 pound-foot of torque that accelerates the sports car up to 340 km/h.
