Back in 2003, before The College Dropout was being shipped to retailers, before "Slow Jamz" was the only thing played at your illicit high school house parties, Mos Def was making big promises. When the legendary Brooklyn MC introduced Kanye West at Def Poetry Jam, he called the Chicagoan "the future of hip-hop," a claim that against all odds proved to more or less be true. But at the time it seemed absurd--until West trotted out and performed an early version of what would become "All Falls Down," a song about weaves and watches that ends, "We all self-conscious, I'm just the first to admit it." Over a decade later, Kanye came through on Mr. Bey's promise, is perhaps the most influential man in rap, and is married to the woman of his dreams. So what do you do when your wife is seven months pregnant with your second child on her birthday? You make sure she's not self-conscious.

TMZ tracked down photos of West, Kardashian and Jenner friends and family at Kim Kardashian-West's 35th birthday party, which took place yesterday (Oct. 21). Kanye had rented out a theater to screen the Aaron Sorkin-penned Steve Jobs; more importantly, he provided each and every guest with a fake baby bump to wear, so as to even the playing field with Kim. She wrote a heartfelt thank-you message on her Instagram:

"My husband never ceases the amaze me! He rented out the entire movie theater to screen the new Steve Jobs (It's sooooo good BTW) and had all of my family & close friends come dressed up as their best pregnant Kim look (fake baby bumps provided on arrival!) Not sure if that was to make me feel less huge or just a fun cool theme but I loved it & had the best time ever, feeling so very comfortable eating churros with a bunch of pregnant women! Just what I needed, the perfect chill yummy food birthday!!!!"
