CelebnMovies247.com reports that hours after jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy premiered on Wednesday, February 16, Ye’s fans were already fuming on Twitter over one scene that appears to give fans insight on how tough the beginning of his career was.
In the scene you see Kanye performing one of his biggest hits, but at the time he was just a producer, Ye was not known as a rapper, just yet.
You see a young Kanye playing his song “All Falls Down” for employees at the Roc-A-Fella office in New York City in an effort to get signed by Jay-Z’s label.
Rocafella Records obviously didn’t get it.
Kanye was hype as he performed the song that would go on to be the third single from his debut album The College Dropout. Yet, none of the employees in the video looked impressed.
Y’all also gotta realize this is at a time when phones ain’t even have cameras on em , he came with a camera crew all the time recording everything. People weren’t used to that , Chaka hair ain’t even done you think she was happy to be on camera? ?

We wonder what Jay Z thinks of this footage?
Fans were shocked to see how hard he campaigned only to be denied and sent away. The way that the label dissed him is crazy. She wasn’t even listening to him in the video.
One Twitter user said:
So crazy how Kanye West played All Falls Down and they didn’t realize how big of a hit it was going to be.
Another Twitter user asked:
Who hired these people? They couldn’t recognize the genius behind this on a first listen?
As other fans chimed in with their thoughts, someone who was actually in the Roc-A-Fella office at the time provided more insight on the scene in question. Wayne “Wayno” Clark, who worked as an assistant A&R at the label, asserted that Kanye played music around the office often.
Wayno tweeted:
Lmao the context behind this is he played this song in the office and did this with a camera crew like 10x. how many times can you have a crazy reaction to something you’ve heard 10x it was kind of annoying at that point.
