Ye Credits Daughter North West With Making Him ‘Love Music Again’

Ye — formerly known as Kanye West — is feeling creatively reinvigorated these days thanks to his daughter North West.

Yeezy took to Instagram early Tuesday (Jan. 21) with a series of posts in the studio, and one found him highlighting North, who is inspiring him musically. West brought out the ASR keyboard to cook up beats for North’s album as well as his upcoming Bully project.

“This little girl made me love music again,” Ye gushed in his caption of a black-and-white photo of his daughter. The rapper shares North, sons Saint and Psalm, and daughter Chicago with ex-wife Kim Kardashian. “She asked me to make beats for her I got back on the ASR Chopped up beats for her album and chopped every beats with my bare hand for BULLY.”

Ye’s longtime collaborator Malik Yusef chimed in, as he seemed to witness the sessions himself. “Yes sir, you definitely did that,” he wrote in the comments. “I’ve been a witness seen it with my own two eyes is really good to see the young God YE doing pure magic!!!!”

Swizz Beatz and many others hopped into West’s comments section to show him love, too. Yeezy also posted more clips featuring his 11-year-old daughter and his cousin The Wrldfms Tony Williams.

North made appearances throughout the Vultures series last year as she assisted on “Talking” and V2‘s “Bomb.”

On the solo front, West is still headed toward the release of his Bully album. He teased the project earlier this month alongside a reunion with his right-hand producer/engineer Mike Dean.

Before ending his Instagram posting spree Monday, Ye made sure to spotlight Master P. Yeezy gave the No Limit Records CEO his flowers. “MY HERO Ok that’s my last post for 12 hours But when I come back it may be 20 post so don’t trip,” he wrote about the innovative executive.
