North West Takes Stage Solo at 12!

North West, at 12 years old, has stepped into the spotlight as a solo musician, recently performing at the Lyrical Lemonade's Summer Smash 2026 festival in Bridgeview, Illinois. Her mother, Kim Kardashian, proudly documented the event on social media, sharing images of a backstage pass and video clips of North singing and rapping to an enthusiastic crowd. Kanye West also celebrated his daughter's musical achievements, sharing a video of their collaborative performance of 'TALKING' from his 'Vultures 1' album. This comes after North West released her debut single 'Talking/Once Again' and her EP 'N0rth4evr' in May. Born on June 15, 2013, North is nearing her 13th birthday. Her musical journey began two years ago, and her parents have consistently supported her artistic endeavors. The unique name 'North West' was inspired by a conversation with Pharrell Williams, according to Kim Kardashian.
