Kanye West took aim at his ex-wife Kim Kardashian in a series of tweets Tuesday in which he said that he was put off by a white woman being in control of his black children.
According to Daily Mail, the Chicago native’s comments directed at his ex-wife came in reaction to a planned musical collaboration between his daughter North, 11, and rapper Playboi Carti, 28, which he opposes.
“So Kim got the name and likeness over my black children,” the Stronger artist, 47, said on X/Twitter Tuesday morning.
The 24-time Grammy winner continued: “So a white women has control over the name and likeness of my Black children and then speaks to carti about putting my daughter on a song with him.”
The Bound 2 performer added that “these [dumb a**] celebrities be trying to play with me in my face.”
West is father to four children with Kardashian, 44: daughters North, 11, and Chicago, seven; and sons Saint, nine, and Psalm, five. Dailymail.com has reached out to reps for Kim Kardashian for further comment on this story.
The comments directed at his ex-wife came in reaction to a planned musical collaboration between his daughter North, 11, and rapper Playboi Carti, 28, which he opposes.
The Runaway artist explained in an earlier tweet Tuesday evening that he wasn’t comfortable letting North work with Playboi Carti, when he is not directly involved with the project.
“I decided North wont be doing any songs with Carti,” West said. “How it look for me to get left off the album and then he ask Kim to have vocals from my daughter.”
The Paranoid vocalist added, “I dont a f*** about none of this industry s*** and how its a skims line in the first place and I dont give a f*** what no comments.”
West cited his beliefs in terms of how gender relates to co-parenting, saying that “the man has the first and final say over his kids.”
The Gold Digger artist previously said Sunday that “the man makes the final decision.”
West was critical of Playboy Carti for not collaborating with him amid recent controversies, citing how he included him on his 2024 hit single CARNIVAL.
“Hey North your dad gave me my biggest song and co sign and I left him off of my album because of his tweets … oh but north you my niece I gotta use your vocals.”
The Through the Wire vocalist said Playboy Carti was out of line in going behind his back to seal the collab with North: “I held my tongue about [not] being on carti album. Him going to my ex to ask my daughter to be on a song 2 days later was too far … nobody finna play with me.”
