From Kanye’s Wiki page:

West’s mother, Dr. Donda C. (Williams) West,[13] was a professor of English at Clark Atlanta University, and the Chair of the English Department at Chicago State University, before retiring to serve as his manager. West was raised in a middle-class background, attending Polaris High School[14] in suburban Oak Lawn, Illinois, after living in Chicago.[15] At the age of 10, West moved with his mother to Nanjing, China, where she was teaching at Nanjing University as part of an exchange program. According to his mother, West was the only foreigner in his class, but settled in well and quickly picked up the language, although he has since forgotten most of it.[16] When asked about his grades in high school, West replied, “I got A’s and B’s. And I’m not even frontin’.”[17]

Born into poverty? Shit, that’s a pretty solid upper-middle class childhood he had - more than mine.

I found that info in less than 30 seconds, btw.
