Kanye West just released a song featuring his daughter North and disgraced rapper Diddy. Before the song went live, he shared screenshots of a text message exchange where Kim Kardashian argued with her ex-husband for their daughter to not be featured on the song.

The song, titled “Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine,” also features Diddy’s (credited on the song as Puff Daddy) son King, and musician Jasmine Williams, whom West noted is a new Yeezy artist from Chicago. “I wanna just thank you so much for just taking care of my kids, man,” a man, who’s believed to be Diddy says in a phone call. “Ain’t nobody reach out to them, ain’t nobody call them.”

“Absolutely, I love you so much man,” West says. “You raised me. Even when I ain’t know you, know what I’m saying?” Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested on September 16, 2024, after pleading not guilty to a range of crimes pertaining to sex trafficking and abuse. The former record mogul is is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, a federal jail.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, who goes by Ye now, agreed on joint custody of their children after their divorce. Kardashian requested an emergency hearing with their lawyers, a mediator and a judge after learning West was planning to drop a song featuring their eldest daughter. West agreed to not drop the song, but surprisingly dropped the song and wrote on a post on X, “THE MAN MAKES THE FINAL DECISION.”

Kim replied to Kanye, “I asked u at the time if I can trademark her name. You said yes. When she’s 18 it goes to her. So stop I went paper work over so she wouldn’t be in the Diddy song to protect her.”

She followed up, “One person has to trademark!”

“We agreed when they were born i would get all of our kids names and trademarks. So no one else would take them.
Kanye’s reply

Kanye wrote, “Amend it or I’m going to war. And neither of us will recover from the public fall out.”

He concluded, “You’re going to have to kill me.”
