Homeless Rapper Strikes Up Rapport With Kanye West

Kanye West

A homeless musician has told how Kanye West invited him into his music studio to get a bite to eat, with the superstar even offering him some sound career advice.

The homeless man, who goes under the stage name Nino Blu, had been sleeping outside New York's Electric Lady studio where he approached Kanya West and gave him an impromptu performance.

So impressed was Kanya West that he invited Nino Blu into the recording studio and the two men talked for 40 minutes. During their chat, Nino enjoyed a strawberry and kiwi smoothie and some “very exotic tasting soup”.

"My birthday was the other day and I just became homeless cos the guy I was living with is a little crazy and I’m out here on the street. Kanye’s bringing me into the studio right now. He let me rap to him. He said I have good energy and he’s gonna show me some beats and stuff," Nino stated in a social media post.

“I feel extremely blessed. I feel very happy. I feel God is looking out for me right now. I don’t really have any words to describe what’s going on.

"It just feels like a crazy-ass miracle and I just want everyone back there to know that if you have a dream or if you have anything that you feel like you’re pursuing keep going till the very end cos you don’t know what potentially could happen.

"The universe works in very mysterious ways and I feel extremely blessed for Kanye West to help me out with this.”

Flores told the the New York Post: “He said that we’re like the guardians of the galaxy because we’re protecting the world through music. He told me that I rap well, that I’m good, that he likes my energy and he likes how I think.”
