Kanye West’s ‘American Idol’ Audition Tape Is Released

American Idol is venturing into their final season and to kick it off, Kanye West decided to audition in front of their panel of judges, Jennifer Lopez, Harry Connick Jr. and Keith Urban.


Back in October, it was rumored that the rapper had auditioned. Vevo tweeted this picture back in October of Yeezy holding up the “golden ticket” with the caption reading, “#ICYMI: @kanyewest auditioned for American Idol today. Bruh, you’re goin to Hollywood!

Patiently waiting outside is West’s pregnant wife, Kim Kardashian West talking to host, Ryan Seacrest.

“I’m not nervous, because I do really believe in him,” she tells him. “I didn’t give him any advice on singing, rapping. I hope they really believe in him,” Kardashian said to Seacrest.

Panning back to Kanye, he introduces himself: “My name is Kanye. I’m from south side of Chicago,” he begins, before revealing his first career was a producer before fighting to become a rapper.”

Lopez, playing along, says the song better be about her. West pays tribute as he goes full a cappella on “Gold Digger,” which shouts out to Lopez.

American Idol begins its final season Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.
