Kim Kardashian's daughter North, 12, teams up with ANOTHER nepo baby for new song… and fans are not happy
North West, the 12-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, has left viewers aghast at her sophomore solo single.
She collaborated on the track with a fellow 'nepo baby' - Lil Novi, the 16-year-old son of rap legend Lil Wayne and R&B songstress Nivea.
Lil Wayne and Kanye worked on a number of songs together in the 2000s, including the 2007 release Barry Bonds and the 2008 single See You in My Nightmares.
Their children's new effort, entitled MULA THA ROOT OF ALL EVIL, is a cacophonous piece of music with a frenetically edited music video to match.
North materializes in the middle of the video with blue hair, seemingly wearing a set of grillz as well as a pair of spiky gauntlets.
MULA THA ROOT OF ALL EVIL dropped Friday and was greeted by a chorus of moans from fans, who left blistering online comments dismissing the single as 'hot trash,' 'a bunch of noise,' 'bulls***,' 'feces' and 'noise pollution.'

'I can’t tell if this is dog s*** or I’m just getting old,' one grumbled as another burst out: 'Man what the f***,' and another merely sighed: 'Terrible.'
'This is what nepotism in music looks like,' an X user observed, adding: 'But I’m here for supporting the babies. This may be the start of something bigger.'
Another groaned: 'my poor fucking ears' and still another shrieked: 'WOW THIS IS THE MOST TRASH SHIT EVER!!!' while one listener cheekily remarked: 'It sounds awful! I hope they make a lot of money.'
The song had its defenders as well, one of whom wrote: 'Everyone talking about trash. My son, nephews and nieces are all listening to artists in this genre rn. It’s new generation stuff. Our parents thought the same about our music.'
The lyric consists largely of the two children bragging about their money, with Lil Novi rapping in the chorus: 'If they say money the root of all evil then I'm a demon.'
'If it ain't 'bout a bag I'm leavin' - too much ice, I'm freezin',' North raps in her segment. 'Had to wear a mask 'cause the bank account too nasty. Wanna see a milli' in cash? Then get at me. Got this green in my pocket like wasabi.'
MULA THA ROOT OF ALL EVIL arrived online a month after North dropped her debut single #N0rth4evr, with an accompanying music video in which she went viral for unveiling a new set of faux piercings.
North, who recently embarked on her own music career, ignited a social media firestorm last year by revealing she had acquired a dermal finger piercing.

Kardashian was heaped with opprobrium for allowing her daughter to undergo the procedure given her tender age and the risks involved, including infection.
However North defiantly hit out at critics and this January appeared to reveal she had gotten two more dermal piercings applied to various fingernails.
In the #N0rth4evr video, she was shown strolling through a graveyard with two stick-on piercings under one of her eyes and another one placed near the top of her nose.
Much of that video was grainy and choppy, in a nod to 'found footage' horror movies like The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity.
Meanwhile the song #N0rth4evr is a pop rock confection with lyrics that address the travails of being one of the world's premiere 'nepo babies.'
'Forever and always, I don't listen, but they talk about me all day,' she sings. 'Everywhere I go feelin' like the wrong way. I can't even act my age, gotta call plays.'
