Yesterday, a song called "Mama's Boyfriend" by Kanye West was leaked to the internet. The song was said to be produced by DJ Premier and originally intended for West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album. Several hip hop sites shared the song and even posted articles on it.

Before the song is even a day old, Kanye West has come forward to discuss the song. Aside from the music, West has been all over the news. However, his news has had more to do with his love life and less to do with his recordings. Kanye West made an exception, as he discussed what is going on.

Kanye West announced the song is fake. He said he has had nothing to do with the song. Instead, an imposter recorded the song, sounding like him. Because of this, Kanye West is very disappointed. At this point, he hoped people had stopped doing imitation records, throwing the fans off.
