Despite reaching unparalleled heights of success, Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, remains deeply rooted in his humble beginnings. The profound love for his mother, Donda West, has continued to live on forever since her sad demise. While social media often prefers sensationalism, Ye fans prove how they can turn a heartbreaking confession into a wholesome reminiscence. A resurfaced video of Ye confessing some unforgettable memories with his mom, in the presence of his former wife Kim Kardashian, has fans all overwhelmed. 

The resurfaced video dates back to 2019 with Ye on Netflix's My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman. With his former wife alongside him, Ye shared a heartwarming story about his late mother, Donda West, gifting him a bear, which later became one of Ye’s signature art covers for his albums. "I remember my mother bought me a bear that was multicolored," he recalled. He recalled how, as a kid, he did not understand the significance of the Takashi Murakami bear.

However, following his mother's tragic death, which brought a legal revolution in America, Ye revealed that he searched desperately for the bear to place it atop his Murakami collection as a tribute to both his mother's gesture and the artist. While Ye continued to narrate the heartfelt memory, the camera panned to his then-wife Kim Kardashian, who also happened to share a special moment with the rapper back in the day. The former couple had just welcomed their fourth child, which undoubtedly contributed to catalyzing emotions even more.
