North West gave her first-ever solo music festival performance at a Chicago festival – check out footage below.
North, who is the 12-year-old daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, has been steadily launching her music career over the past few years, and took to the stage at Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash 2026 in Chicago on Friday (June 12) for her festival debut.
She performed ‘Talking’, her 2024 collaboration with Kanye – now known as Ye – which is featured on his album ‘Vultures 1’, as well as tracks from her debut EP ‘N0rth4evr’, which was released in May.
Both her parents supported the gig, with Kardashian and Ye sharing clips of the set to their Instagram stories.
The performances came after she shared a teaser of a new collaborative single with her father back in January. In ‘Piercing On My Hand (Ye Version)’, she raps: “No friends, just filter, you wouldn’t understand / Shopping in Japan, that’s where I always stand / Went to school for two days, then I got banned / Skipping school, yeah, I do it on the daily.”
