Kim Kardashian Takes Legal Action after Kanye West Releases New Song Featuring Daughter North West and Diddy

In a move that has sent shockwaves through both the entertainment and legal worlds, Kim Kardashian is reportedly taking legal action against her ex-husband Kanye West, following the surprise release of a new song that features their 10-year-old daughter North West — alongside music mogul Diddy.

The track, which dropped unannounced and instantly went viral, includes vocals from North, who appears in the chorus, and a brief verse where Kanye references his children and ongoing family dynamics.

While fans initially celebrated the collaboration as a bold and touching moment between father and daughter, it quickly turned controversial when it emerged that Kim was not made aware of North’s inclusion in the project — and did not give her consent for it.

According to sources close to Kim, the reality TV star and entrepreneur was “blindsided” by the song’s release and has since engaged her legal team to explore possible violations of custody agreements and privacy laws.

“She had no idea this was coming,” an insider revealed. “She’s incredibly protective of North and her siblings, especially when it comes to media exposure and music. This crossed a line.”

The song, titled “Father’s Legacy,” features Kanye reflecting on his life, fame, and fatherhood, with North’s voice layered over a soulful beat.

While the lyrical content is not explicitly offensive, Kim reportedly took issue with both the lack of consent and the public nature of the release, especially considering the sensitive nature of their co-parenting arrangement.

For years, Kim and Kanye — who officially finalized their divorce in 2022 — have maintained a complicated relationship.

While they’ve attempted to co-parent amicably, public incidents involving social media spats, custody rumors, and differing views on how to raise their children have made headlines time and again.

This latest development seems to have reignited tensions, particularly around how their children are involved in Kanye’s increasingly unpredictable artistic projects.

“What bothers Kim the most,” another source said, “is that North is still a child. She deserves privacy and protection, not to be placed in the middle of her parents’ creative or personal conflicts.”

Legal experts have weighed in, suggesting Kim may have grounds for a case, particularly if the custody agreement includes clauses related to media appearances or public performances involving the children.

“If one parent uses a child’s likeness or voice without the other’s consent, especially in a monetized format, that could be a legal issue,” said celebrity attorney Rachel Goldman.

“Especially when there’s a clear lack of communication or agreement.”

The involvement of Diddy in the project has added an extra layer of intrigue — though sources say his feature was likely recorded separately and may not have been aware of North’s involvement.

Diddy has yet to comment publicly on the matter, and his representatives have declined to issue a statement.

As the song gains traction online, reactions have been mixed.

Some fans have applauded North’s growing confidence and natural charisma, which have been on display in several TikTok videos and public events alongside her mother.

Others have sided with Kim, arguing that even if the song was well-intentioned, it should have been a mutually agreed-upon decision between both parents.

“I love Ye,” one fan tweeted, “but this wasn’t the move. North is just a kid. Kim has every right to be upset.”

Kim Kardashian, known for carefully managing her brand and her children’s exposure to the public, has taken a more private approach in recent months, particularly where her children are concerned.

While she’s allowed North limited appearances on social media — usually supervised and with content restrictions — she’s been vocal about her desire to let her children live as normal a life as possible despite their fame.

“She’s always tried to draw that line between fame and family,” a close friend said. “This song erased that line without warning.”

In response to the legal concerns, Kanye West has yet to make a public statement.

However, insiders close to the rapper suggest he views the collaboration as a personal and artistic expression of love for his daughter — not a legal misstep.

“To Ye, this was a father sharing a moment with his child,” said one associate. “He didn’t see it as exploitation. He saw it as legacy.”

But for Kim, the issue isn’t intent — it’s respect, boundaries, and parental consent. And now, with lawyers reportedly involved, the situation may escalate into another high-profile legal battle between the two stars.

As of now, the song remains online and continues to climb streaming charts. Whether it will be removed or edited in the face of legal pressure remains to be seen.

For now, one thing is clear: when it comes to family, fame, and freedom of expression, the line is blurrier than ever — and Kim Kardashian is drawing hers in the sand.
