Grammys Auction Kanye West "College Dropout" for Charity

While the unparalleled producer-artist-mogul may be known for award show controversy and continuing to upset or annoy as much as he astounds, Yeezy’s using his spotlight for good as The Grammys Auctioning Signed Kanye West “College Dropout” Album for Charity!!!

Kanye’s name is on everyone lips for better and for worse at a level that shades away from the Grammys Auctioning Signed Kanye West “College Dropout” Album for Charity. As one meme read, “Lord knows he’s trying to keep that Adidas sponsorship,” but all in all Ye will be Ye. Heading into and out of the 2015 Grammy Awards alone, a surge of Vines from a few red carpet rants hit the net, everyone was hype about the “Four Five Seconds” performance and others for “Only One,” followed by a collective gasp during the Album of the Year presentation when even Beck (who later responded in good spirits) was a deer in headlights at his on-stage Taylor Swift–repeat interruption. But all jokes, drama and rants aside, Ye cares.

MusiCares is the official award fund out for the goods from the Grammys Auctioning Signed Kanye West “College Dropout” Album for Charity. Bidding is so far a little over $500, modest to say the least, but there’s still a week left to and who knows the levels this can reach in seven days! (Calling all collectors and hypebeasts)!!!

Grammys Auctioning Signed Kanye West “College Dropout” Album for Charity and it’s a vinyl record that’s up for grabs on Ebay. The classic teddy bear/university image surrounded by ornate gold and burgundy has been signed and tagged by the music megastar with a silver metallic sharpie in it’s bottom right corner. As noted by Pigeons and Planes,

“All this is to say that despite Ye’s vocal protestations about the problems with the Grammys, he’s still willing to get behind their more benevolent efforts.”

Indeed. Check the vid for a vintage look back at the road to the classic first album!!!
