According to <em data-start=\"966\" data-end=\"978\">Daily Mail<\/em>, West alleged that <strong data-start=\"998\" data-end=\"1047\">Kim handled the arrangement without his input<\/strong>, despite North being their child.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-start=\"1083\" data-end=\"1275\">\n<p data-start=\"1085\" data-end=\"1275\"><em data-start=\"1085\" data-end=\"1203\">\u201cWhy would Carti ask Kim for vocals from North and not involve me \u2014 her father, an artist?
