"Hey Mama" is a song by American hip hop artist Kanye West. It was released as the sixteenth song on the track-listing of his second studio album Late Registration (2005). The song was produced by West and composer Jon Brion and the song contains a sample of "Today Won't Come Again" by Donal Leace.[1] Though it appeared on his 2005 album, West had composed the song long before he had found fame, as early as 2000.[2] He provided a live rendition of "Hey Mama" as a tribute to his mother after she died in November 2007 within the setlist of his Glow in the Dark Tour.

Background

The song is a ballad dedicated to West's mother, Donda West, describing his affection and appreciation for her having raised him amidst personal hardships and instilling her values in him.[3]

As a tribute to Donda West and to protest the release date of Taylor Swift's Reputation falling on the 10th anniversary of her death on November 10, 2017, West's fans organized Hey Mama Day, streaming the song over 700,000 times.[4]

Chart performance

Despite the absence of a physical single release, "Hey Mama" managed to enter charts in North America. In the United States, the song entered the Billboard Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles at number nine for the issue dated November 24, 2007.[5] A few months later, on the issue dated March 1, 2008, "Hey Mama" appeared on the Hot Canadian Digital Singles chart in the sixty-fourth position.[6]

Live performances

An early live performance of "Hey Mama" took place in West's hometown of Chicago at the conclusion of a concert with Dilated Peoples held in the House of Blues on May 5, 2004.[7] West included "Hey Mama" within the setlist of his Touch the Sky Tour that occurred in late 2005.[8] On November 17, 2007 at Le Zenith in Paris, France, during his first public performance since his mother's death a week before, West broke down into tears while attempting to perform the song.[9] After his mother's death, West would perform a live rendition of the song as a tribute to her, most notably during all of his concerts on his Glow in the Dark tour that ran from 2007 to 2008 in promotion for his third studio album Graduation (2007).[10] In the concert, West followed the performance up by dedicating a cover of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'{{-"}} to her.[11] He performed "Hey Mama" as a tribute at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards for his mother in a black jacket.[12] West ended his set at the 2011 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival by performing the song.[13] On the opening show of The Yeezus Tour at the KeyArena in Seattle, the song was performed live by West.[14]
