Doting Kanye West Happily Plays With His Daughter Chicago, Hours After Saying Kim Kardashian And Her Family Refused Giving Him The Address To Her Birthday Party [Photos/Videos]
Rapper and fashion designer, Kanye West made it to his daughter , Chicago’s birthday party on Saturday, January 15, just hours after uploading a video accusing estranged wife, Kim Kardashian and her family of refusing to give him the address of the birthday party.
Kanye shared a video in which he expressed his frustration over Chicago West’s fourth birthday celebration. The video shows Kanye behind the driver’s wheel, accusing the Kardashians of intentionally keeping him away from the party.
“I wasn’t allowed to know where her party was, there’s nothing legal that’s saying that this is the kind of game that’s being played,” he says. “This is the kind of thing that really has affected my health for the longest and I’m just not playing. I’m taking control of my narrative this year. I’m being the best father—the Ye version of a father—and I’m not finna let this happen.”
In the video Kanye goes on to wish Chicago a happy birthday and says he’s only sharing the video because he needs his fans’ support.
“I done call Kim [Kardashian], texted nannies, I got on the phone with Tristan [Thompson],” he continues.
“He asked Khloé [why] won’t nobody give me the address to my daughter’s birthday party right now. That’s gonna imprint in her mind that I wasn’t there for her. You get what I’m saying?”
Kanye then said he was supposed to be in Miami to record his next album, but that his entire schedule is based around his father duties.
“They been takin’ fathers out of the homes purposefully,” he says. “So I’m speaking up. I’m using my voice to say this ain’t going to keep happenin’.”
But shortly after sharing the video, Kanye was spotted at Chicago’s party alongside his mother in-law Kris Jenner. The event appeared to be a joint birthday celebration with Stormi Webster, the daughter of Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott, who also appear in the video. He could also be seen playing with Chicago.
In a new video recorded after Chicago’s birthday party, Kanye then thanked Travis Scott for giving him directions to the party. He also thanked Kylie for letting him in.
Kanye and Kim have been in divorce proceedings for nearly a year. The couple, who have four children together, announced their separation back in February, nearly seven years after their marriage. Kim has since started a relationship with Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson, while Kanye is now dating Julia Fox after making several attempts to get back to Kim.
The incident comes after a recent interview with Hollywood Unlocked, where the rapper opened up about his current relationship with Kim.
He told the outlet there was one time when his oldest daughter, North, asked him to come inside Kim’s home, but her security wouldn’t allow it.
“So at that point, security was in between me and my children and that’s what was not going to happen,”
West recalled “But I didn’t want to argue about it. So I just chilled, took my kids to school, and then took my kids back. I am driving. I bring them back and North was like, ‘I want you to come upstairs and see something.’ And it’s like, ‘Oh, Daddy can’t come see something. Daddy can’t come inside.’ But that hadn’t been defined.”

Meet the Man Who Turned Hype Into a Science: Emmy Blaq, Nigeria’s G.O.A.T. of Hype
If you have ever been at a Nigerian event and found yourself on your feet before the main act even stepped on stage, there is a good chance a hype man was responsible. But not just any hype man. Emmy Blaq, born Ikechukwu Emmanuel Chima and raised in Auchi, Edo State, has spent the last few years quietly becoming the most talked-about name in that profession, and the Nigerian press has taken notice. Punch, Vanguard, The Guardian Nigeria, The Nation, and Independent Newspaper have all sat down with him, and every conversation leads back to the same thing: this man does not just make noise; he makes moments.
What makes Emmy Blaq different is the journey behind the energy. Before the stages, the collaborations with Waje on her “Waje 2.0” album, DJ Consequence, and DJ Kaywise on the massively streamed “Joor Party Mix” series, he was repairing generators, cutting hair, and sewing clothes in Auchi. His first professional hype gig happened at a local fast food spot called Valchi, and the crowd response that night changed everything. He told The Nation directly: “My passion for entertainment and desire to make people happy led me into the craft.” Punch also captured his bigger mission when he said that hype men deserve more than what they currently earn, a statement that sparked a real conversation across Nigerian entertainment circles.
With over 1.7 million TikTok followers, 23.6 million TikTok likes, a viral “Wife Material” challenge that landed on Pulse Nigeria’s top ten social media moments of 2021, and an international performance at the Cameroon International Music Festival that Cameroonian media described as electrifying, Emmy Blaq is not building toward something. He is already there. The G.O.A.T. of Hype is not a title he gave himself and hoped would stick. It is one the rooms keep confirming every single time he grabs the mic.
