The following is a comprehensive listing of official releases by Kanye West, an American rapper, singer, and producer. He has released five studio albums, two DVDs, and twenty-two singles on Roc-A-Fella Records. He has also sold over 11 million albums in the United States, over 15 million worldwide and and over 25 million digital songs in the United States placing him second for solo male artists on the list and sixth overall for best selling digital artists.[1] He has had 4 Billboard Hot 100 number 1 singles, on 2 of which he is a featured artist.

West's debut album, The College Dropout, was released in February 2004 and it produced four singles, including US Billboard Hot 100 top ten single "All Falls Down" and the Grammy Award-winner "Jesus Walks". The album reached number two in the US, and shipped over four million copies and was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). West's second album, Late Registration, debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 albums charts, and the US Rap albums chart, shipping just under 860,000 sales in its first week, the most first week sales in the history of West's record label, Def Jam. Late Registration produced the number one single "Gold Digger", with Jamie Foxx, and the award-winning singles "Touch the Sky", with rapper Lupe Fiasco, and "Diamonds from Sierra Leone", with rapper Jay-Z. Late Registration is one of very few rap albums to receive a 5/5 from Rolling Stone magazine.[citation needed] The critically acclaimed album has sold over six million copies, and has gained five multi-platinum certifications, including triple platinum from the RIAA. West's third album, Graduation, shipped over 957,000 units in its first week, breaking the previous record set by West's previous album. Graduation held the US number one spot for over a month, also reaching number one in the UK. It spawned two Grammy Award-winning singles, the number one single "Stronger" and the top ten single "Good Life" with T-Pain. West's fourth album went in a controversially new direction, singing rather than rapping. The album, 808s & Heartbreak, was a third consecutive number one for West. It spawned two top-three singles, "Love Lockdown" and "Heartless", which topped the US airplay charts for three straight weeks. He released My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, his fifth studio album, on November 22, 2010.

West has had 5 songs exceed 3 million in digital sales as of July 2011, with "Gold Digger" selling 3,086,000, "Stronger" selling 4,402,000, "Heartless" selling 3,742,000, "E.T." selling over 4,000,000 and "Love Lockdown" selling over 3,000,000[2][3] placing him third in overall digital sales of the past decade.[4][5]
