Kanye West's "Through The Wire" Legitimacy Questioned By Conspiracy Theory

Kanye West's 2003 single "Through the Wire," widely considered one of the finest debuts in rap history, tells the story of Kanye's recovery in the hospital following a harrowing automobile accident that left him with a broken jaw. A minor Twitter firestorm ignited Thursday morning after @Flyer_thanu2 implied that everything we know about the song is a lie. 

"What's crazy is Kanye still got the world thinking he was in a bad car accident October 2002... all Im'a say is come to Chicagoland and ask," he wrote.

The Twittersphere exploded with confusion and indignation; Spin posted screenshots of court documents from the lawsuit following Kanye's accident.

Even if the story was fabricated... the song still bangs.
