The latest drama surrounding West comes after he performed in Miami for his upcoming album. The rapper has children and his wife, Bianca Censori, was present as he wowed the audience with music from the music project.
At the event, Censori played the mother of West’s children, who were seen surrounding him on their way to the premiere of “Vultures.”
As they arrived for the outing, Censori was seen gently holding the rapper’s youngest child, Chicago, close to her chest, with her hands under the child’s legs. Instead, Chicago hugged the 28-year-old’s neck. West and Saint followed close behind, along with the rapper’s other children, North and Psalm.
In contrast to their recent public appearances, the controversial couple opted for a simpler fashion style while still radiating a unique vibe.
The blonde bombshell paired a black faux leather jacket with bright red snakeskin heeled boots. Additionally, he wore a bandana with West’s album name, “Vultures,” written on it. Meanwhile, West chose to wear a black T-shirt and tracksuit bottoms, covering his face by wrapping a jumper around his head.

Despite the backlash, Censori is said to be unfazed and believes her husband’s words were “taken out of context.” Sources close to the two also claim that the rapper’s wife has denied the allegations of anti-Semitism that saw her husband receive public ire.
Amidst all the drama, fans are eagerly anticipating the new body of work, with many taking to social media to share their excitement for new music from West.
