More tributes, and Kanye West has paid tribute to his mother - who died earlier this month - at a gig in Belgium, and explained his reasoning for returning to his European tour so soon after her death.
West: "People called me and told me I needed to stop touring. 'Go home and clear your head', they said. Go home to what motherfucker? There's nothing that she loved more than to come to the shows and scream louder than any fan because she was my first fan and she was screaming before anybody else. If she was here she would tell me to: 'Get on that stage and kill it dawg'. She would tell me to: 'Go on this Glow In The Dark tour, take over the world and be Number One like I told you to be baby'".
Meanwhile 50 Cent, Kanye's recent chart rival, has been giving his support to West for returning to performing so soon, telling the Associated Press: "That's really an unfortunate situation and I hope he can work his way through it. It's good to see him actually touring. You can work your way back into a comfortable space where you can deal with those situations. I hope that he can work his way through it ... if you're active, you'll find reasons to smile, reasons to be happy".
