Kanye West Praises Travis Scott For Sneaking Him Into Chicago's Birthday Party

Kanye West’s year is off to a very emotional and unexpected start.

The rapper, who legally goes by Ye now, explained on social media that he was not invited to his daughter’s fourth birthday.

Over the weekend, Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner threw a joint birthday party for their daughters, Chicago West and Stormi Webster.

Chicago turned four on Saturday, January 15, and Stormi will be turning four on February 1.

Ye let it be known that his estranged wife did not invite him to the birthday festivities.

In video obtained by Hollywood Unlocked, Ye sent a lengthy message to his fans.

“Ya’ll just wisnhing my daughter a public Happy Birthday. I wasn’t allowed to know where her party was. The games that’s being played is the kind of thing that’s affected my health for the longest, and I’m just not playin’. I’m not letting… I’m taking control of my narrative this year,” he revealed. “I’m being the father, best father, the Ye version of a father and I’m not finna let this happen. [Inaudible]. Chicago, happy birthday. I love you and I’m just putting this online, because I need y’all support.”

Ye explained that he tried calling Kim, texting nannies and even got on the phone with Tristan to figure out where and what time the party was.

“I done called Kim, texted nannies, I got on the phone with Tristan. He said he asked Khloe. Won’t nobody give me the address to my daughter’s birthday party right now. That’s going to imprint in her mind that I wasn’t there for her. You get what I’m saying,” Ye said. “I was supposed to be in Miami recording my album. My whole schedule is all based around me being able to take my kids to school. Me being there for them. Making sure that I’m in they life. That’s the whole point of having money.”

He went on a rant about how fathers are taken out of households throughout America, and that’s what he is working to change.

“So, I’m speaking up, I’m using my voice to say, ‘This ain’t gone keep happenin.’ This narrative is not finna happen. There’s a lot people that’s got a position where they ain’t got no voice. When people be playing games like this. Baby Mommas be playin’ games. The grandmommas be playin’ games like this. And it’s like as y’all know, they ain’t finna play like this with me.”

Fans were shocked to see he actually made an appearance at the party on social media.

After the party, he took to social media again with a very different attitude.

“Yo, I’m so happy right now. I just came from Chi’s party and I just got to shout out to Travis Scott for sending me the address and the time and making sure that I was able to spend that birthday memory with my daughter.”

Travis and Kylie were key to getting Kanye into the party.

“To be there with the rest of the family, and I just saw everybody: Kris,Corey, Kylie… Kylie let me in right when I got to the spot because the security, you know, stopped me once again when I got there,” he explained. “And, you know, it’s just a matter of having a conversation, open dialogue and everyone just had a great time, and I’m just really happy I could be there for my children. I just want to thank everybody for their support in this situation, you know, just let me just calmly and legally take control of my narrative.”

He reiterated that his kids are his main focus.

“My life centers around my children. And I just had a great time today.”

Last week The Blast reported on Kanye's desire to buy a house across the street from Kim.

In a sit-down interview with Hollywood Unlocked, he told Jason Lee, “My solace comes from seeing my kids and getting a solid schedule. That's why I even got the house. There’s nothing with my career, with this rap, with this media, with none of that that’s going to keep me from my children.  And that’s what I want everyone to know.”
