At a recent Miami listening party for Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign's collaborative album, Vultures, the unexpected star of the night emerged as North West, the 10-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.

Taking on the stage name "Miss Westie," North made her rap debut on the track "You Don't Want (North Interlude)," captivating attendees with her confident delivery and engaging performance.

The Miami event, originally focused on the highly anticipated collaboration between Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign, took an unexpected turn as North showcased her rhythmic skills with lines like "I love it here / We're gonna take over another year / It's your bestie Miss, Miss Westie."

The 10-year-old added to the surprise with a dance performance, elevating her debut beyond mere vocals.

Beyond the entertainment world, North West has expressed aspirations that extend into the business world.

According to Kim Kardashian, North has voiced her interest in taking over SKIMS, her mother's successful venture, and eventually stepping into the iconic Yeezy label pioneered by her father, Kanye West.

Notably, North's talents don't stop at business and music. As disclosed by Kim on a recent episode of The Kardashians, "All North wants to do is rate people's outfits. She loves to critique." This keen eye for style was vividly illustrated when North candidly assessed her mother's 2023 Met Gala look, offering an honest opinion that showcased her developing sense of fashion aesthetics.

In addition to her surprise rap debut, North, alongside her mother Kim, manages a popular TikTok account boasting 17.5 million followers.
