Kim Kardashian Furious as Kanye West Includes Their 11-Year-Old Daughter in Song with Diddy

Kim Kardashian is outraged over Kanye West’s decision to include their 11-year-old daughter, North West, in his latest song, which also features Sean “Diddy” Combs. The controversy has quickly escalated into a bitter public battle between the former couple, with West allegedly threatening to go "to war" with Kardashian after she attempted to prevent North’s involvement.

Shortly before releasing the track, West posted—and later deleted—screen-grabs of a heated text exchange between him and Kardashian. The messages suggest that Kardashian tried to block North from participating in the song by leveraging the copyright she holds over their daughter’s name.

The text messages appear to reveal a deeply personal and legal battle between the two. West allegedly sent Kardashian a message stating, "I'm never speaking with you again," alongs"participation in this project." 

Kardashian, in turn, defended her actions, explaining that she had previously asked West’s permission to trademark North’s name and that he had agreed to it at the time. “You said yes,” she allegedly reminded him, adding that the trademark rights would transfer to North when she turns 18.

More notably, Kardashian insisted that she was only trying to protect their daughter. She allegedly told West: “I sent paperwork over so she wouldn’t be in the Diddy song. To protect her.”

For Kardashian, the primary concern appears to be shielding North from any association with Diddy, who is currently awaiting trial on multiple charges related to sexual assault. But for West, this move was an attack on his parental rights and artistic vision, pushing him to the brink of open conflict with his ex-wife.

West’s reaction was characteristically intense. The deleted messages suggest that he sees Kardashian’s interference as an unjustifiable power move, using legal mechanisms to control North’s artistic choices.

For him, featuring his daughter in his music was not just a creative decision but a statement—one that reinforced his independence from Kardashian’s influence.

His threat to go "to war" with Kardashian over this issue indicates just how deeply he felt betrayed by her actions. Despite any past agreements about trademarks or legal guardianship, he seemed unwilling to accept that Kardashian had the authority to prevent North from appearing on the track.

This situation mirrors West’s long history of defying restrictions, both in his personal life and in his career. Whether battling music executives, the media, or his own family, he has always insisted on having control.

This time, his refusal to back down has escalated tensions with Kardashian in a very public way.

Kardashian’s outrage is understandable, considering the serious allegations surrounding Diddy. She has spent years carefully crafting an image for her children, ensuring they are raised in an environment that balances public attention with parental protection.

Having North associated with an artist facing criminal accusations is not something she is willing to allow.

For Kardashian, this isn’t just about a song—it’s about ensuring North is shielded from potential fallout. If Diddy’s legal situation worsens, any association with him could reflect poorly on North in the future.

Her alleged text message—“To protect her”—makes it clear that her priority is her daughter’s well-being, not West’s artistic ambitions.

West and Kardashian’s relationship has been turbulent since their divorce, with multiple public disputes over co-parenting, control, and their children’s exposure to the entertainment industry. This latest controversy is another chapter in their ongoing struggle for influence over North’s life.

While West’s supporters see his stance as a father’s right to involve his daughter in his work, Kardashian’s fans believe she is acting responsibly by keeping North away from controversy.

The fact that West posted—then quickly deleted—their text exchange suggests that even he realized how explosive this situation could become. However, the damage was already done.

The leaked conversation only fueled public speculation about the growing divide between the two and their conflicting visions for North’s future.

With the song already released, it is unclear whether Kardashian will take further legal action to remove North’s involvement. Given her apparent control over North’s name rights, she may have grounds to challenge the track’s distribution.

Meanwhile, West remains defiant, continuing to push his own narrative of artistic freedom and fatherhood. His decision to include North in the song, despite Kardashian’s objections, reinforces his belief that he alone should decide what’s best for their daughter in the creative space.

This situation raises larger questions about how children of celebrities navigate fame, especially when their parents are at odds. At what point does parental control become overreach?

And how much say should a child have in their own public image?

For now, the world watches as the rift between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West deepens. But one thing is certain—this battle over North’s involvement in the music industry is far from over.
