Kanye West receives honorary doctorate from Chicago Art Institute

Kanye West receives honorary doctorate from Chicago Art Institute

If you thought  Kanye West could be considered already at the top in every possible and imaginable field, perhaps you could think again.

The rapper has in fact just received an Honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts at the Art Institute of Chicago. Wearing the traditional black gown and hat, during his speech, he admitted to being nervous and humbled by the whole experience: a side of West we didn't know.

"I felt my nerves a bit, and I don't feel that feeling a lot, the nerves of humility and modesty, when being honored. A humanisation, a reality of being."

Kanye West - for the first time fragile and emotional - descends from that Olympus made of extraordinary feats and extraordinary men of which he was the chief.

A big day for Kanye and his family: "Dr. Kanye West!!!!!!! I'm so proud of you baby & I know your mom would be so proud too!!!!" wrote Kim on Twitter.

Rapper, influencer, designer, inventor, father, political commentator and now doctor: would you like to try to be more multitasking than him ?!

Ps: We're waiting for our box of Jordan almonds.
