The whole world recognizes Kanye West as an indisputable music and fashion titan. His significance and impact, although sometimes marred by his antics, can not be overemphasized. The man may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but he is surely a living legend. Kanye’s kids with Kim Kardashian are also media royalty, despite their young ages. His marriage to Kim in 2014 was a worldwide event that attracted the attention of the media and masses around the globe -- an unsurprising effect, given that Kim is a global star herself. More often than not, one will not be mentioned without the other.
Their marriage was marked by its glamor, impact, and of course, its drama. Towards the end, it experienced turbulence and strain that ultimately led to their divorce. Still, fans of the couple still look back fondly on their time together. Amidst their grand fashion statements and iconic achievements, the most beautiful thing to come out of their time together is their four kids. Although the two may no longer be on such good terms, they continue to co-parent.
North West is the eldest of Kanye’s kids with Kim Kardashian. Born in Los Angeles, California, on June 15, 2013, she immediately became a target for media attention as a result of her parents high-profile status. North grew up in the spotlight, making appearances at various public events with her parents and spurring viral moments.
In recent years, she became known for her unique fashion sense, often being seen in stylish outfits that mirrored her parents’ affinity for high fashion. North opened up to the public in recent years, whether through her parents social media accounts, public appearances or her own TikTok page. She takes after her father as we've seen her interests in music, art, dance, and fashion take center stage. Her interactions with her younger siblings were often featured on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, showcasing her role as an older sister.
Saint is Kanye's second child. He was born on December 5, 2015. He has been seen occasionally in public with his family but has generally kept more out of the spotlight compared to his older sister. Saint is mostly seen at family events and gatherings, with limited appearances at public outings with his parents and siblings. Information about his personality and interests has also been kept relatively private due to his young age. However, Saint has a clear liking for sports. For the most part, his family has successfully shielded him from the public eye.
The third of Kanye’s kids is Chicago, who was born on January 15, 2018. She was born via surrogate due to complications Kim experienced during her previous pregnancies. Chicago’s name holds special significance for Kanye West. Kim Kardashian previously explained that they chose the name to honor Kanye’s connection to the city. Her parents have also taken steps to maintain her privacy, only sharing glimpses of her life on social media.
Psalm West is the youngest of Kanye’s kids, and like his sister Chicago, was born via surrogate. He was born on May 9, 2019. The name “Psalm” is of religious significance, taking inspiration from the Bible. He has been present at various family events and occasions, often photographed with his siblings and parents. However, given his young age, details about Psalm’s personality and interests have not been extensively shared publicly.

Bowling For Soup and Frank Turner say they are certain they will eventually record music together.
The pop punk favourites and the singer songwriter will be touring together across Australia and the UK throughout May, June and July for a series of co headlining shows. They also came close to recording a track together for Bowling For Soup’s upcoming twelfth studio album.
Lead singer Jaret Reddick told ContactMusic.com: "We had actually talked about doing a track together for the new [BFS] album.
"I was working on songs during a really hectic period for Frank. We had planned this perfect day where he would stop by the studio. He did show up, but we ended up just spending time together and catching up instead, with no expectations.
"I feel like if we had tried to finish something just to release it before the tours, it probably would not have come out the way we wanted.
"I do believe that at some point down the line we are both sure we will create something together."
Frank and Jaret have already worked side by side in the studio before on the track Drunk As It Takes, which appeared on the BFS frontman’s country album.
Frank reflected: "There is something special about country songwriting that I think we both really admire.
"There is a real honesty and straightforwardness to it that I think both of us naturally bring into our own music, no matter what style we are working in."
Even though Frank is not featured on the new record, Jaret did share some insight into Bowling For Soup’s forthcoming album, which gained momentum after they recorded Holding Onto That Hate last summer while testing equipment for audio company SSL.
He explained: "They were looking for a band to come in and record a track to test out some new studio equipment. It ended up being our first recording as a three piece.
"I remember telling the guys, 'I think I am feeling inspired again. Let’s just go for it.'
"We set a target date, which ended up being February this year, and we followed through. A lot of the songwriting happened toward the end of last year and continued into January."
Jaret mentioned that he considers the 2009 album Sorry For Partying to be "the last truly great Bowling For Soup record," but he is very optimistic about what is coming next.
He said: "Some fans would probably argue and say, 'Actually, Lunch. Drunk. Love. is great as well'.
"But when I think about the last couple of albums, I sometimes feel like there were a few tracks I maybe should have left off.
"With this new record, there honestly is not a single weak track. All three of us feel like this could end up being the best Bowling For Soup album we have ever made, which feels wild to even say."
At first, the group considered putting the album out quickly, but they later decided to take more time with it.
He added: "To be honest, that idea does not really make sense since we will be touring with Frank and also heading out with Simple Plan.
"We are now thinking about releasing it in the fall or possibly even early next year. It is going to be worth the wait."
