AceShowbiz - Kanye West invited a reportedly homeless superfan into his recording studio for a chat and a smoothie on Saturday, September 29.
The aspiring musician, who goes by the name of Nino Blu, slept outside the Electric Lady Studios on West 8th Street in New York in an effort to meet "The Life of Pablo" rapper, who was in the city to perform on "Saturday Night Live".
Nino, 28, reportedly told Kanye he was kicked out of his Rockaway Beach apartment by his roommate three days ago.
"I just want everyone to know back there that if you have dream or you have anything you feel you are pursuing, keep going for that s**t until the very end because you don't know what potentially could happen," Nino said in an Instagram video posted by Kanye.
"The universe works in some very mysterious ways. I feel very blessed with Kanye West," he added.
Nino told The New York Post that Kanye invited him inside the recording studios for a 40-minute chat over a "strawberry and kiwi smoothie" and some "very exotic tasting soup".
"He said that we're like the Guardians of the Galaxy because we're protecting the world through music," Nino said. "He told me that I rap well, that I'm good, that he likes my energy and he likes how I think."
However, according to PageSix.com, Nino began to "creep out" the rapper and his security team, and he was then asked to leave.
After Kanye's security team escorted him out, Nino continued to linger outside for hours.
The rapper's good deed comes hours after he revealed he's changing his professional name to YE.
"The being formally (sic) known as Kanye West. I am YE," he tweeted on Saturday.
