West dedicates rest of tour to mother

Kanye West has vowed to continue his current tour, dedicating the dates to his late mother.

Speaking onstage in Brussels, West told the crowd that his mum would have wanted him to complete the gigs.

West said: "There's nothing that she loved more than to come to the show and scream louder than any fan.

"She was my first fan that was screaming before anyone else. If she was here, she would tell me, 'Get on that stage and kill it, dawg!' That was her favourite word: 'Dawg'.

"She would tell me, 'Take over the world and be Number One like I taught you to be'."

The rapper plays the London O2 Arena tomorrow, which kicks off the UK leg of his world tour.

Donda West passed away on November 10.
