In a dramatic turn of events, Kanye West has released a new track titled “Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine,” which features his daughter North West and music mogul Diddy. However, the release has sparked controversy as reports indicate that Kim Kardashian attempted to block the song from being released.

The track opens with a recording of Diddy conversing with West, expressing his gratitude for the rapper’s support before transitioning to the 11-year-old North rapping lines that highlight her confidence and resilience. The song’s debut, however, was short-lived, as West reportedly deleted it from his X account shortly after its release on March 16.

Allegations surfaced that Kardashian, the mother of North, had tried to prevent the track’s release. In a series of now-deleted posts on X, West shared what appeared to be screenshots of text exchanges with Kardashian. The exchanges revealed Kardashian’s claims that she had trademarked their daughter’s name to protect her from being associated with the song. “I asked you at the time if I can trademark her name; you said yes when she’s 18 it goes to her,” Kardashian allegedly wrote. She emphasized that her actions were intended to shield North from any potential negative associations with Diddy, who is currently facing serious legal issues, including federal sex trafficking charges.

Kardashian reportedly took significant steps to block the release of the track, even issuing a cease-and-desist order and seeking an emergency hearing with a mediator and judge. Sources indicated that West did not participate in these proceedings, despite having initially promised not to release the song. Kardashian’s concerns seem to stem from a desire to keep their daughter away from any controversy related to her father’s recent behavior, which includes a series of troubling public statements.

In response to Kardashian’s alleged actions, West expressed his discontent, stating, “Amend it or I’m going to war, and neither of us will recover from the public fallout.” This escalating conflict between the former couple highlights ongoing tensions as they navigate their co-parenting relationship amid their individual controversies.

As the situation continues to unfold, it remains unclear whether West will ultimately release the song in question or if Kardashian’s legal maneuvers will successfully prevent it. Access Hollywood has reached out to representatives for both Kardashian and West for further comments on this developing story.
