Kanye West releases ‘Bomb’ music video with kids North and Chicago
Kanye West has released the music video for ‘Bomb’ featuring his children North and Chicago.
The rapper dropped the visuals for ‘Bomb’ today (November 28), which appeared on his latest album ‘VULTURES 2‘. It’s the second instalment of the ‘VULTURES’ series, with the first album dropping in February this year.
In the music video, eldest daughter North and third-born Chicago appear in go karts, as they’re chased around the desert by giant furry monsters.
North is no stranger to appearing with Kanye in his music; she previously appeared on ‘VULTURES 1‘ on ‘Talking‘, and is also set to release her debut album ‘Elementary School Dropout‘ soon.
Take a look at the music video below:
It follows a wave of recent accusations against the musician, including a model who alleged West assaulted and strangled her on a video set for La Roux’s ‘In For The Kill’.
Filed last Friday (November 22), Jenifer An claimed that West directed the camera crew to capture the alleged assault, where he was “towering over” her.
“On camera, defendant West began to choke plaintiff with one hand. He then wrapped his other hand around her neck and continued to strangle her with both hands,” the lawsuit alleged. “He then rammed several fingers down her throat, continuously moved them in and out, and gagged her.”
An further claimed that West used his fingers “to emulate forced oral sex” while reportedly screaming, “This is art. This is fucking art. I am like Picasso.”
West has not responded to the allegations so far. NME have approached West, Universal Music Group and La Roux’s representatives for comment.
The rapper was also accused of being antisemitic in front of his staff earlier this month, claims to which he also has not responded. In June, his ex-assistant Lauren Pisciotta sued him for sexual harassment and wrongful termination and alleged in an expanded lawsuit last month that he had sexually assaulted to her.
At the time, West responded to the claims in a statement made to Rolling Stone via his legal representative, calling Pisciotta’s accusations “baseless”, and announcing he planned to countersue.
News of the amended suit emerged only days after West was sued by another former employee, who claimed that the rapper hired him to spy on the Kardashians, follow his wife Bianca Censori and more.
In April, West was sued for racial discrimination by one of his former security guards. He was sued by another member of staff recently for allegedly threatening to “cage” his Donda Academy students. West has not responded to either lawsuit.
