Kanye West is looking back into the past.
On Mother’s Day, the 44-year-old rapper dropped a new video for his song “Life of the Party,” featuring pictures from his childhood, including throwbacks with his late mom Donda West.
The pictures of Kanye (who legally changed his name to Ye in October 2021), which include an old ID, baby photos, school pictures and more, have been animated to appear as though they are singing along to the track.
Another change is that some of the artist’s outfits have been swapped out with pieces from his upcoming Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga collection, Gap said in a press release. The line is set to drop May 25.
A commercial for Yeezy Gap Engineered by Balenciaga, featuring footage from the “Life of the Party” video, also aired on Fox Network Sunday night during Family Guy.
“Life of the Party” appears on the deluxe version of Kanye’s tenth studio album, Donda. The original song on the deluxe record, released in November 2021 following Donda’s initial drop that August, was a collaboration with André 3000, though the version in the music video just features Kanye’s voice.
