Amidst the fame and fortune that often makes or breaks the life of a celebrity, certain moments leave them more vulnerable than they would like. For Kanye West, it was when he lost his beloved mother, Donda, back in 2007. Although the artist is a rather controversial figure in public, his love for his mother is the one thing that no one could deny.

Now, after years of grappling with his demons both in public and in private, the 46-year-old shared some insight into the eerie yet calming similarities between his 10-year-old daughter, North West, and his late mother.

Shortly after stunning the world with another ‘Vultures 1’ listening party at the Rolling Loud music festival, Kanye West made his way onto a talk show. During a recent interview on BigBoyTV, the rapper shared that he believed his mom, Donda, spoke to him through his daughter, North West. He stated that had happened when she had helped him figure out the middle line for his track, ‘Back To Me’.

West recalled that she had told him, “You know, it’s a good song, it’s a banger.” The rapper also said that North reminded him, “You’ve got to say how you feel.” With the oldest West sibling proving to have wisdom beyond her years and knowing exactly what to say to her father, it looks like their connection can only get stronger. After all, the 10-year-old seems to be set to follow the 46-year-old’s footsteps with her music career.
