Debuting as one among many freestylers in the early 2000s, Kanye West made quite a name for himself. Going on to win his first Grammy Award in 2005, the ubiquitous rapper holds quite a dominant hold on the realm of hip-hop. However, his absence from recent A-list music events such as the MTV VMAs has amped up calls for an imminent fresh album release echo throughout the fandom. Meanwhile, in his quest to fulfill the same, the singer finds himself in Saudi Arabia alongside his daughter, North West, as well as his entire studio team.

The ten-year-old’s visit alongside her father comes close on the heels of her unleashing rather ambitiously scary plans.

To the unaided, she might appear to be innocuously naive, however, North West possesses a keen business acumen. The avid basketball player had recently unraveled her plans of taking over both her parents’ incumbent businesses. Days following it, she appeared to be taking her first steps towards its fulfillment when she landed beside West in his Middle Eastern sojourn. Moreover, a recent photo surfaced of the father-daughter duo in a heart-warming stance from one of the trip’s legs.

The visit holds prominence in recent times when Kim Kardashian has taken the tag of being a better parent. The former couple share four kids together, among whom North West stands to be the eldest daughter. Additionally, the Saudi Arabian glimpse follows the ten-year-old take on his father’s footsteps after dressing up as one of his album mascots this Halloween. Finally, the trip also saw Ye interact with business chiefs, which might come across as resourceful aid for the junior.
