Kanye West is getting back on stage — and his latest concert was eventful, to say the least.
West, 48, performed in Los Angeles on Wednesday, April 1, where he brought out daughter North, 12, for a special duet, per social media footage. The father-daughter pair walked side by side on the smoke-covered stage, wearing matching all-black ensembles.
Later during the show, West paused his performance of another song when he was displeased by the lighting design.
“Yo, I don’t like when the lights move like that, like a disco s***. It don’t go with the stage,” West lamented in social media videos. “Don’t do that, stop doing that.”
According to West, the strobe lighting pattern looked “corny.”
“Is this like an SNL skit or something? Stop doing the vibration [and] Vegas lights, bro,” he quipped. “We went over this in rehearsal. Yeah, put the earth [background] up.”
Many of West’s recent concerts have been thoroughly curated and featured a number by North. He recently enlisted his eldest daughter for a tune during his January 30 gig in Mexico City.
West shares North, as well as children Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6, with ex-wife Kim Kardashian. West and Kardashian, 45, split in 2021, and have since been working to amicably coparent their four kids.
“I’m a really empathetic person. I mean, at the end of the day, we’re always family,” Kim said on her sister Khloé Kardashian’s podcast in January. “I always look at it that way, no matter what’s going on. There are times when I have to be super protective and there are times when, at any moment, I would love that relationship. I’ve always said that.”
Kim has especially relied on West to mentor North’s budding musical career.
“The music side and the producing isn’t my thing, and that’s her bonding thing with her dad,” Kim said. “Even just coming up with stuff, we have to communicate about how North moves through that world and all these opportunities that come her way and having to filter that and respecting his opinion on the things that go on with his kids is really important.”
She added, “It’s been so fun to see her blossom. I’ll add her writing out all her lyrics as part of her spelling tests. We do all of the things at home that she really enjoys and are challenging, and I think [people] would be proud to see how smart she really is and how creative she really is.”
