My iPod #360: Kanye West – Family Business

“Family Business” is exactly about what it says in the title. It’s Kanye West’s tribute to his family, dead and alive, a particular verse is for a cousin who was incarcerated at the time. But overall, the track is a general salute to those who helped him grow and get where he was back in 2004, or whenever he recorded this track.

It’s probably one of the sweetest tracks Kanye has ever done, not just in terms of quality but to listen to it is very delightful. A cute piano sample starts it all off, with child vocals used during the choir break (which itself is a reference to Rain, Rain, Go Away) and the outro…. It’s a great song to hear if you’re with the people you love.

I love my family, so this is the perfect song.
