Kanye West celebrated his first Father's Day nearly two weeks ago, but the rapper just showed Twitter followers for the first on Monday what he received, presumably from the mother of his child, Kim Kardashian.
A photo posted on Twitter shows a pair of mice from Apple desktop computers, one autographed by Apple cofounder Steve Jobs and the other signed by other cofounder Steve Wozniak. "One of the other gifts my girl gave me for fathers day," West tweeted along with the image. On the right is the mouse signed in black Sharpie marker by Jobs, and the left mouse simply says "Woz," Wozniak's nickname, in cursive handwriting.

Jobs has taken on a special meaning for West, especially in his recent promotion of his new album "Yeezus." West withdrew from the pensiveness he displayed at points during the promotion of his previous album, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy," and boldly proclaimed himself not only the most relevant name in hip-hop or music, but all celebrity-dom.
"I think what Kanye West is going to mean is something similar to what Steve Jobs means," he said in an interview with The New York Times. "I am undoubtedly, you know, Steve of Internet, downtown, fashion, culture. Period. By a long jump."
Not to say that West has no respect for the often overshadowed Wozniak. The computer pioneer is reportedly one of the only people who has laid eyes on North West, the two-plus week-old child of West and Kardashian.
West had previously disconnected his Twitter account, a near constant stream of consciousness, but he's slowly getting back into form. This was only the third tweet since North's birth.
