Kim Kardashian’s Daughter North West Shocks Fans with Japanese Rap on FKA Twigs’ New Album!
In a stunning surprise, North West, the 11-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, made a remarkable appearance on FKA Twigs’ highly anticipated third studio album, EUSEXUA, which officially dropped on Thursday. North’s feature on the track “Childlike Things” has sparked a mix of reactions from fans, who were taken aback by her fluency in Japanese as she rapped on the upbeat song.
North West’s Musical Talent and Growing Career
North West has already made a name for herself in the music world, following in the footsteps of her famous father, Kanye West. Her appearance on EUSEXUA is not her first foray into the music industry. Last year, she stunned fans with her Japanese rap on Kanye’s Vultures 2 album. North has even revealed plans to release her debut album, Elementary School Dropout, a tribute to Kanye’s 2004 masterpiece, The College Dropout.
“Childlike Things” is the eighth track on EUSEXUA, and North’s rap begins halfway through the song. Her unexpected inclusion on the track immediately garnered attention on social media, with fans expressing shock, confusion, and admiration for the surprising collaboration.
Fans React to North West’s Feature
The response from fans has been varied. One user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “Never in my life did I think I’d be dancing to a FKA Twigs + North West collab, yet here we are.” Another commented, “That one new FKA Twigs song was actually good before she put North West on there for absolutely no discernible reason.” However, not all reactions were negative. One fan expressed, “The North West feature isn’t bad! FKA Twigs did it; this song is fun and camp, I love it.”
Other social media users continued to share their disbelief, with one person writing, “I was so caught off guard when North West started speaking in Japanese in the song. We love you FKA Twigs, we love you EUSEXUA!” Another user exclaimed, “North West rapping about God in Japanese as a feature for FKA Twigs was NOT on my bingo card for 2025.”
Despite some initial skepticism, many fans found themselves enjoying the track. One fan shared, “The backlash of North West being on EUSEXUA is the best thing to happen to the album. The rollout has been horrendous, but FKA Twigs had one chance, and she nailed it!”
North West’s Rising Music Career
North West’s feature on EUSEXUA isn’t just a one-off moment. She has previously demonstrated her love for music and has already released her own tracks. Last year, during her father’s Vultures 2 album listening event, she made an exciting announcement about her debut album, Elementary School Dropout, leaving fans excited for what’s to come. The album will likely pay homage to Kanye’s The College Dropout, a groundbreaking release in the world of hip hop.
North’s journey in music hasn’t been without its share of criticism. She faced backlash from online trolls who accused her of benefiting from the “nepo-baby” label, suggesting that her success was solely due to her famous parents. Despite the online negativity, North continues to build her career with confidence.
North West Expands Her Creative Pursuits
While music seems to be her primary focus, North is also exploring other creative avenues. In addition to her musical pursuits, she has shared her desire to start her own clothing line, which will reportedly be named after her. During a conversation with her mother, Kim Kardashian, for Interview Magazine, North explained that she feels she’s already doing what she loves and doesn’t need to decide on just one career path. “I just want to pursue my careers now,” she said.
North’s creative endeavors extend beyond music and fashion. In May of last year, she made her acting debut as Young Simba in The Lion King’s 30th Anniversary concert at The Hollywood Bowl, where her performance earned a standing ovation.
FKA Twigs’ EUSEXUA and Its Themes
FKA Twigs’ new album, EUSEXUA, which features North West’s surprising rap, is a blend of psychedelic, childlike exploration mixed with raw, gritty undertones of human sexuality. In an interview with Spotify’s “Countdown To” podcast, FKA Twigs described the album as “a mixture of this slightly psychedelic, childlike, playful exploration of what it is to be human,” with the darker themes of “raw, dirty, hard, sexual grit” running beneath the surface. With 11 tracks on the album, including the unexpected collaboration with North, EUSEXUA is a bold and experimental work that reflects both the artist’s unique style and her willingness to push boundaries.
The Impact of North West’s Feature
North West’s inclusion on EUSEXUA has undoubtedly added a layer of intrigue to FKA Twigs’ album. While the feature shocked some, it also showcased North’s impressive fluency in Japanese and her ability to seamlessly integrate into a track alongside a renowned artist like FKA Twigs. As North’s career continues to develop, fans can expect more surprises from the young talent, whether it be in music, fashion, or other creative fields.
FKA Twigs’ EUSEXUA, with its unexpected collaborations and innovative sound, is available for listeners to experience now. The album, released under Young and Atlantic Records, offers an exploration of human nature, blending playful innocence with mature undertones, a perfect backdrop for North West’s unforgettable feature.
