At one point, Akademiks addressed West’s ongoing public grievances over co-parenting his four children—North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. West has repeatedly accused Kim of exerting full control over their upbringing.
Akademiks suggested that West refuses to take accountability for his role in the fractured family dynamic, saying, “When you speak about Kim, people might be like, ‘Well, you picked her. You put yourself in that.’”
In a shocking turn of events, Ye unexpectedly agreed before making a stunning admission.
“Absolutely, I did,’ he replied. “That was my fault. No, that was my fault.”
The Grammy winner, 47, added: “I didn’t want to have children with this person after the first two months of being with them, but that wasn’t God’s plan.”
The Latest Episode in the Kanye-Kardashian Saga.
Kim and Kanye were married for six years before finalizing their divorce in 2022. Since then, West has used social media to air grievances about their co-parenting struggles, often provoking backlash.
Recently, the Yeezy founder and the reality TV star had a war of words over their eldest child, whom West wanted to have featured on one of his songs with disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Kardashian tried to get a judge to stop the song from being released because she did not want her daughter tied to the Bad Boy Records founder, who is awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking.
