North West, 11, Raps in Japanese on FKA twigs’ Album Eusexua

North West is showing her multilingual mastery yet again.

The 11-year-old daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian is featured on a track on FKA twigs’ new album, Eusexua, which dropped on Friday, January 24. North raps in Japanese on “Childlike Things,” the eighth track on the album.

“Where the wild things are I will be / Lost in a world of childlike things and fantasies,” FKA twigs sings, before North comes in and raps, in Japanese, lyrics that translate to, “Hello / My name is North-chan / California to Tokyo / Jesus king / God is praise / Jesus is the only true God.”

Kardashian, a proud mom, promoted the track to her 358 million Instagram followers via her story on Friday.

North West is following in dad Kanye West’s musical footsteps. North, 10, made her music video debut for her dad’s new song “Talking/Once Again” with Ty Dolla $ign, which dropped on Wednesday, February 7. “I love it here / We gonna take over the year for another year / It’s your bestie, Miss, Miss Westie,” […]

North previously rapped in Japanese on “Bomb,” featured on her dad’s Vulture 2 album, released last August. The music video for the track released in November and featured North and her sister, Chicago, 7, in the desert in a Tesla Cybertruck. (West and Kardashian also share sons Saint, 9, and Psalm, 5.).

North has spent time in Japan, telling Interview Magazine in October 2024 what she “loves” about the country, including that “everybody’s style is on point.”

Her appearance on FKA twigs’ album comes while the tween is working on an album of her own. North announced Elementary School Dropout, her debut album, last March. The name is a nod to her dad’s debut studio album, The College Dropout, from 2004.

Ye, 47, has seemingly been in the studio with North as recently as Tuesday, January 21, when he posted a black-and-white photo of her via his Instagram channel.

“This little girl made me love music again 🥲,” he captioned the post. “She asked me to make beats for her I got back on the ASR Chopped up beats for her album and chopped every beats with my bare hand for BULLY.”

While North continues working on her own project, her featured appearance on Eusexua has been met with mixed reviews. Rolling Stone UK called it “a bizarre misstep on the album,” while The Quietus said, “it sticks out on an otherwise sophisticated album, and is just plain annoying.”

Many fans, however, reacted more positively, sharing their praise for twigs and North via X.

“Never in my life would i thought i be dancing to a fka twigs + north west collab yet here we are,” one fan wrote.

“THE NORTH WEST FEATURE ISNT BAD FKA TWIGS DID IT THIS SONG IS FUN AND CAMP I LOVE IT,” another exclaimed.
