Drake Vibes to the Iconic Song That Made Kanye West’s Career
As far as one could remember, Kanye West and Drake have always had a love-hate relationship. Or one can say that these two iconic rappers cannot stay together in one frame for a long time. Their complicated bond has seen many phases, starting from idolizing to collaboration to beefing with one another in a constant loop. However, in the past months, things have remained quiet on the front, considering Ye is already occupied with the fall of his glorious kingdom. But the latest video shared by the hip-hop sensation on social media might be one of the rarest moments of their relationship.
Drake recently took to his Instagram account to share a video of himself. The story showed the 36-year-old making a video in the restroom as he tuned in to his frenemy’s song. The singer wore a black sweatshirt and gray pants as he sang along to ‘Through the Wire’. This is the song that introduced Kanye West to the music industry.

The former billionaire wrote and recorded the solo single in October 20o2. This song peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100, receiving positive reviews from critics. It also brought the Atlanta native a Grammy nomination back in 2005 and has been certified Platinum and Gold in the US and UK.
This post has proved that the Canadian rapper has always loved Ye’s music. This is why he also wanted to work alongside him in his ‘Jeen-Yuhs’ Documentary. Meanwhile, the story behind the rise of the ‘Donda’ singer might just make fans appreciate his talent, just like Drake did in his story.

Kanye West might be the easiest celebrity to ridicule. His actions often make him the target of criticism and backlash on social media. Yet he is the same man who has been known for his incredible talent. The 46-year-old has collaborated with the biggest names in the fashion, film, and music industry. And to get to these incredible heights, he has worked hard to prove why he deserves the spotlight.
His first big break came when he sold a beat to a Chicago-based musician named Gravity for $8,000. Then he sold another beat to Jermaine Dupri for the song named ‘Life in 1462.’ Continuing the same path, he rose to fame as a producer and now he is once again ready to return to the limelight with a new music album.
