Creditors Looking For Kanye To Pay Off Mom's Debt

by: Linda Hobbs

Rapper asked to pay over half-million

Eight months after the death of Dr. Donda West, creditors are knocking on the door of her son Kanye with one message: pay up.

According to TMZ, an Illinois trust company are demanding that the rapper pay over upwards $600,000 to settle his mom’s condo mortgage. Creditors said that Ms. West—who didn’t have a will when she died— owed the $600,000, plus interest when she passed, and Kanye happens to be the co-executor.

West died November 10, 2007 of coronary artery disease and complications following plastic surgery. She was 58-years-old.
