Kanye West got emotional on Tuesday, with a message for his late mother, Donda, on her birthday.
The 39-year-old rapper took to Twitter to commemorate what would have been her 67th birthday, posting a throwback photo of himself and his mother from what appears to be his teenage years.
"NORI ASKED IF THE AIRPLANE COULD TAKE HER TO HEAVEN TO SEE YOU FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY," Kanye captioned the photo. "I LOVE YOU MOM."

Donda died due to complications from a cosmetic surgery procedure in November 2007, almost six years before Kanye and wife Kim Kardashian welcomed their daughter, North, in June 2013.
In February, the Life of Pablo artist paid tribute to his mom during his Yeezy Season 3 event in New York City, rocking a t-shirt with his mom's face airbrushed on the front.
