LOS ANGELES -- Donda West, mother of Kanye West and former chairwoman of Chicago State University's English department, has died, a spokesman for the rapper said. She was 58.
Donda West died Saturday night in Los Angeles, said the spokesman, who asked for anonymity because not all family members had been notified.
"The family respectfully asks for privacy during this time of grief," the spokesman said.
Her publicist, Patricia Green, told BBC News that Donda West passed away "as the result of complications from a cosmetic surgical procedure." Green gave no further details.
Donda West was known for the strong bond she shared with her son, by whose side she was often seen at parties and award shows.
