LOS ANGELES, Sept. 23 (UPI) -- Kanye West made a surprise appearance at LA Trade Technical College on Friday. The 37-year-old rapper reportedly spent about two hours discussing his life experiences with a group of around 40 students from the digital communications department as well as troubled youth.
West's drop-in at the school is part of the rapper's community service requirement stemming from an incident he had with a paparazzi in July of last year. During his visit, West spoke to the students about his struggles in the music, design and fashion industry as well as his inspirations.
