North West, the daughter of Kanye West, steps into the spotlight as a rap star in the music video for “Talking/Once Again,” a track from Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign’s eagerly anticipated album, “Vultures.” The video, directed by the D’innocenzo brothers, showcases North’s burgeoning talent as she raps alongside her father, both dressed in matching black outfits. The chorus, which North debuted at a Miami rave in December, captures the essence of her youthful confidence and creativity.
Released on Kanye’s Instagram and X accounts, the video arrives just before the February 9th launch of “Vultures,” marking a significant moment for both artists. The visual narrative divides between Kanye and North’s collaboration on “Talking” and Ty Dolla $ign with his daughter, Jailynn Griffin, in “Once Again,” creating a powerful portrayal of father-daughter bonds in the music industry.
Ty Dolla $ign’s verse resonates with heartfelt concern for his daughter’s future, reflecting on the impact of his influence, while Kanye’s lyrics contemplate the inevitability of change and growth. The video concludes with an intimate moment between Ty Dolla $ign and Jailynn, emphasizing family connections.
The release of “Vultures” comes at a critical time for Kanye West, following a series of controversies that led to severed ties with major brands. As anticipation builds for another Vultures listening party in Chicago, fans are eager to experience the collaborative genius of Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign, with “Talking/Once Again” setting a promising tone for the album.
