Kanye West posted on his blog for the first time since the untimely death of his mother, Dr. Donda West, after plastic surgery in early November. He titled the entry “Thank you all for your support,”. Kanye didn’t get into the details about the tough time he went through or his mother’s passing. He just talked about how he loves to play Connect Four and how it helped him pass the time. Here’s Kanye’s post:
“THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT
When I was in Europe I would play this game for hours and hours… it helped me zone out. Everybody would get envolved… Derrick Dudley (Common’s manager) and Consequence were the best other than me… I beat Lexi… Don C beat Jay… Tony Williams beat Common… but every now and then people would speak of this legendary connect 4 champion……….. BEYONCE!!! I had 2 play her!…so last night at Jay’s new 40/40 club in Las Vegas (which is sidebar, crazy big w/ 24krt gold flooring, Black Jack tables, $500 slot machines,the biggest projection screen in the universe and the best turkey burgers I’ve ever had in my life) she beat me 9 times in a row! (and I didn’t even spaz lol) here’s a photo of the only game I won!
Happy new year everybody.”
He also included these pictures playing with Beyonce, and said she kicked his butt in the game nine times in a row. Whe he finally did beat her he made sure he took pictures.
Kanye and Beyonce were at the opening of Jay-Z’s 4040 club and casino in Las Vegas. There were plenty of high stakes games, gourmet food and expensive drinks these two millionaires could have enjoyed that night, but instead they were involved in a marathon Connect Four game outside of the action.
Happy new year, Kanye!
