North’s stage debut came after she announced her first album Elementary School Dropout in March, a nod to her father’s 2004 debut The College Dropout.
The preteen was also featured on “Talking / Once Again,” from Vultures 1, Ye’s collaborative album with Ty Dolla $ign.
The song made North one of the youngest artists to ever chart on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at No. 30 in February.

North opened up about her love of singing on the cover of iD last October, explaining that “performing is my favorite,” and that the passion “mostly comes from me… and then a little bit from my dad.”
When asked what she wants to be when she grows up, North said, “a rapper, a basketball player, and I’m going to make artwork that I sell.”
“Also, one day I want to own Yeezy and SKIMS, and I want to be a business owner,” North added.
Kim and Kanye were married from 2014 to 2022 and shared North, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and 5-year-old Psalm.
