*****KANYE WEST "SCHOOL SPRIRIT TOUR '04" PRESS RELEASE*****

KANYE'S SCHOOL SPIRIT: WEST GOES BACK TO COLLEGES, THEATERS & CLUBS TOO



NATIONAL "SCHOOL SPIRIT TOUR '04" FEATURES YOUNG GUNZ, DILATED PEOPLES

"THE COLLEGE DROPOUT" CERTIFIED PLATINUM"

Kanye West has created 2004's first great hip-hop album. This album is not quite perfect, but it is close all but guaranteed to debut near the top of the charts." - New York Times

"It's too early to proclaim College Dropout the album of the year, but it's hard to imagine any record hip-hop or otherwise matching it's breath and quality." - Time Out New York

"There have been few hip-hop debuts as mature and polished as producer-rapper Kanye West's College Dropout...incredibly catchy, accessible and melodic; the 26-year-old delivers musical talent and a sense of maturity that mainstream hip-hop has lacked recently, and this outstanding debut must not be missed." - Associated Press

NEW YORK, NY With the astounding success of his debut album The College Dropout - the acclaimed set has soundscanned over 875,000 copies in under a month and will be officially certified platinum by the RIAA next week - Kanye West is ready to take the show on the road.

The "School Spirit Tour '04" kicks off on Tuesday, March 16 at Virginia Tech University and will last until mid-May, spanning the country and hitting colleges, universities, theaters and clubs along the way. In both Los Angeles and Chicago, Kanye will host three-night stands at the House Of Blues, where he has been named April's "Emerging Artist Of The Month."

Joining Kanye throughout the tour will be Dilated Peoples, whose new single "This Way" was produced by and features West. Also heading out for select dates in April will be fellow Roc-A-Fella artists the Young Gunz, who joined Kanye at the top of the charts recently with the #3 bow of their debut Tough Luv.
