Kanye West has not been shy in expressing his feels about his split from Kim Kardashian on social media, and now the 44-year-old rapper is using his music as another platform to work through the messy details of the divorce. Last week, West hosted a live listening party for his new album ‘Donda 2’ and did not hold back in lyrically unpacking his beef with Pete Davidson, his parenting woes, and his love lost for Kardashian.

West has been vocal about how parenting has changed since his split from Kardashian, and back in January for Chicago’s 4th birthday the rapper alleged that Kardashian kept him from entering the premises to wish his daughter a happy birthday. “My daughter wanted me to go inside. I was like, I am the richest Black man and North’s father, right, and the security was able to stop me from going into the room with my daughter,” he shared with Hollywood Unlocked.
Seemingly riffing off this incident, West released a track on ‘Donda 2’ titled “Security” in which he rapped that he “ain’t getting frisked” and will put “security at risk” in an evident bid to see his children. West continues in the song, saying, “Never take the family picture off the fridge / Never stand between a man and his kids,” as an apparent dig to Kardashian’s new beau, Pete Davidson who West has repeatedly publicly attacked on social media.

West also released a song called “Flowers” in which he raps, “I am a flex, imagine your ex face when he find out / I am the best, you hit the top, wait ’til they found out / He not a threat, send him a text, put him on timeout.” This could be taken as a reference to a recent text exchange that West shared with Davidson and then posted on Instagram in which the 28-year-old comedian said he would never stand between the rapper and his children. To this, West responded, “NO YOU WILL NEVER MEET MY CHILDREN.”
The rapper has made it clear that he feels as though Kardashian is keeping his children from him, revealing in the song “True Love,” “Wait, when I pick ’em up, I feel like they borrowed / When I gotta return them, scan ’em like a bar code.” Unlike during the listening parties of the initial release of ‘Donda,’ Kardashian was not at this event and all hopes of reconciliation seem to be off the table for the pair.
