Throwback Thursday: "Through the Wire" -- Kanye West

This is the video that kicked off the high-flying career of Kanyeezy. It's still amazing that he was able to spit this whole song through a wired jaw; and the highly conceptual idea behind the song's title and topic is a testament to the artistic genius that Kanye possesses. And—to complete my Yeezy cheerleading for the day—I've got to give props to him for the video itself, which serves as a poignant visual representation of where he's been, where he is, and where he's going (as well as gives much-deserved love to Chaka Khan for allowing him to sample her "Through the Fire" for the track).
