Kanye West has once again taken to social media — this time via a raw livestream — to air out his ongoing frustrations about his co-parenting situation with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, and being cut off from key decisions regarding their four children: North (11), Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (5).
In the emotionally charged video, West, dressed in an all-black outfit and mask, said:
“I’mma go get these kids, bro. I’m talking to the lawyers. It gets to the point where I don’t lose my f**in’ mind where I got to get used to not seeing my kids.”*
The breaking point appears to be a rumored music collaboration between his daughter North and rapper Playboi Carti — something West claims he was blindsided by and did not approve. According to Daily Mail, West alleged that Kim handled the arrangement without his input, despite North being their child.
“Why would Carti ask Kim for vocals from North and not involve me — her father, an artist? That doesn’t make sense,” West reportedly said, clearly upset at being excluded from the project.
He also used the moment to publicly call out Kim, accusing her of exploiting their children’s image:
“Kim Kardashian, a white woman, has control over the name and likeness of our Black children,” he tweeted, igniting fresh waves of controversy online.
But his frustrations didn’t stop there. Kanye took aim at other celebrities, calling them out for their silence.
“None of these celebrity n**** give a f*** about anything but their next cheeseburger,”* he said, also pointing fingers at Jay-Z and Beyoncé for not offering support during his public struggles.
He concluded with a mix of despair and determination, seemingly emboldened by YouTuber and hip-hop commentator DJ Akademiks.
“Akademiks put that battery in my back, bro… I was in the airport by myself… I’mma go get these kids, man!”
West’s outburst marks the latest chapter in his turbulent relationship with Kim Kardashian, who has largely kept a more reserved public posture amid years of custody and co-parenting drama.
Neither Kim Kardashian nor Playboi Carti have issued public responses yet.
