Kanye West: I Made This Magician Famous

Undeniable proof Kanye West is a changed, more patient man ... he actually sat through a freakin' magic show with Kim Kardashian and North.

Audience members at magician Dan White's small NYC show tell us Yeezy even seemed impressed with the tricks on Sunday night -- so much so, he stepped up when White asked for a volunteer to help with the final card trick.

Check out the video ... Kanye looked totally baffled by White's sleight of hand.

The magician's only mistake was asking Kanye what his magical hand gesture would be. He quickly replied with a double bird salute.
