Kanye West described his life as a dad as “boring” in a 2015 Hot 97 interview. However, it sounds like North West was keeping him somewhat busy with her creative and athletic pursuits. “I gotta take [her] to tap class and gym class,” he said (via the Mirror).
Before North was even two years old, Ye had her crafting custom accessories for her mother. For one of Kim Kardashian’s 34th birthday gifts in 2014, Ye gave North a $20,000 Hermès handbag and let his daughter go to town with the fingerpaints. He also filmed her so Kardashian could see the budding young artist at work. “I thought it was an artist that painted the purse, some custom thing,” North’s proud mama told People. “I thought it was some new artist, and it was my daughter.”

Ye also helped foster his daughter’s love of fashion design. In a 2018 Power 92 interview, he recounted how he played the role of North’s assistant while she used bubblewrap to create a gown. He soon learned that his daughter possesses his desire for perfection when it comes to her designs. “She’d be screaming at me, ‘You didn’t hold the plastic right. You never gonna sell no clothes!'” Ye recalled. “I’m like, ‘Damn. You worse than the internet, North.” The rapper then said of fatherhood, “It humbles you.”
