Donda West was a professer of English at Clark Atlanta University, and later the Chair of the English Department at Chicago State University. She would retire to serve as Kanye’s manager.
Kanye admits that he has shortcomings in the subject of English (and admits it again later in this so-called “Tweetfest”), though he has said in the past that in high school he “got A’s and B’s, and I’m not even frontin'.”
“I know she sends an SDMH from heaven” means that his mom would be disappointed (“shaking my damn head”) with Kanye for having wrong grammar when she’s a teacher herself, and so close to him.

In music videos (such as “Super Bass”), Nicki often blinks fast when she embodies her alter ego of Barbie. Here, she’s making people blink fast because we can’t believe our eyes or our ears.
As Nicki wraps up her monster verse, she encourages listeners to take a second look. Not only do her cash and physical looks draw attention, but her rapping ability is now undeniable. She knows it, and that’s why she closes out with the declaration “AHHH! I’m a motherfucking monster!” Jay Z and Kanye have all declared it already in the song, but Nicki ultimately has the final word.
