Kanye Facing Backlash Over Performance with North West


Over the weekend in Miami Kanye West performed music from his new album 'Vultures' including a feature by his daughter North [click here if you missed that]. 

Now Ye is facing backlash for having North onstage while reciting vulgar lyrics...

From The Sun
The rapper, 46, let the 10-year-old rap a verse of his new song at his Vultures album launch party on Tuesday night.
North joined Kanye and his collaborator Ty Dolla $ign, 41, on stage to debut her verse in front of an audience.
The crowd went wild as North danced and belted the lyrics: "It's your bestie. Miss, Miss Westy!"
She continued: "Don't tryna test me. It's gonna get messy. Just, just bless me. Bless me!"
Many fans praised the father-daughter moment, claiming North is a star in the making.
Howeveer, others felt it was "inappropriate" that the preteen was at the show, especially considering some of the "vulgar" lyrics in the songs Kanye performed there.
One wrote on Reddit: "Did anybody else think it was weird that Kanye had North on stage? He was rapping a lot of vulgar things."
Another pointed out: "Kanye was also dressed in a Klansman hood."
Kanye was seen wearing a KKK-style black hood onstage at one point - a year after being slammed for making anti-Semitic comments.
A third critic added: "Everyone was thinking it’s so cute? Like, actually it’s not a cute look to get your young kid(s) involved in your career when you’re an antisemitic misogynist.
"Your kid can’t go on stage and become entangled in his hateful messiness."
Someone else commented, "It was completely inappropriate. I am disgusted," and another user added: "Kanye is a terrible excuse for a parent."
