Dr. Donda West, mother and manager of hip-hop phenomenon Kanye West is set to release a book this spring entitled Raising Kanye. According to AOL Black Voices, the book will be co-written by best selling author Karen Hunter and is scheduled to hit shelves on May 15.

The book will tell Dr. West's story as a single mother and detail her struggles raising the infamous Kanye West from childhood on. A spokesperson from the publishers revealed that the book will also feature never before seen photos of both Kanye and Dr. West.

Note that Kanye’s mother, Dr West, who is more known for her role as Kanye’s manager, is also the former chairman of the English department at Chicago State University. She resigned from her position to take on the responsibilities as Kanye's manager. Hmmm, she had a fit when he dropped out of college to pursue a career in music but she later went on to quit her job as the CHAIRMAN of a collegiate department to be an artist manager….This should make for a really good book. Be on the lookout!
