West, dressed in orange, remains silent in the video as the aspiring rapper tells the story of their encounter.
He said: “My name is Nino Blu. I’m here with Kanye West. My birthday was the other day. I just became homeless, I’m out here on the street.
“Kanye’s brought me into the studio right now. He heard me rap, he let me rap to him. He says I have good energy, and he’s going to show me some beats.
“I feel extremely blessed. I feel very happy. I feel like God is just looking out for me right now.
“If you have a dream, if you feel like you have anything you’re pursuing, keep going.”
West announced on Twitter that he will be using the moniker of Ye in future.
