Miss Westie is back in the studio.
North West teamed up with dad Kanye West for a new track about a few of her favorite things—namely her new body jewelry—sharing a snippet of her song titled “Piercing on My Hand” on her newly formed Instagram account.
On the Jan. 15 preview of the track, North—the eldest of Kanye and ex Kim Kardashian’s four kids—made it clear she’s not listening to critics who take aim at her fashion choices.
“Piercing on my hand, the other for them bands,” she rapped over the beat. “No friendship if you do not understand. Shopping in Japan that’s where I always am. Went to school for two days then I got banned.”
North gave a shoutout to her friends before getting back to her style, rapping, “Got some new Ricks yeah they’re so crazy.”
Making it clear that she’s not going to change her accessories, North declared over the beat, “I want more piercings and tats, I love blue hair put it in some plaits. Put the music to the max. I want 100,000 racks.”
Though her dad didn’t make an appearance in the clip, North was sure give him a shoutout in the caption writing, “Piercing on my hand @ye version.”
Indeed, the 13-year-old has been unapologetically clear when it comes to her style. Days before the song’s release, North proved that she indeed had more piercings on her hand in a Jan. 13 Instagram Story.
In the pic, North held her hand towards the camera to display matching silver piercings on her index and middle fingers while rocking an all-black Balenciaga ensemble. North showcased her finger bling once more the same day on her and Kim’s joint TikTok page captioned “#northforever,” in a clip where she frequently flashed her hand while lip syncing to rapper Prettifun’s 2024 single “Ice Cream.”
North fingers aren’t the only piercing hot spot. Indeed, earlier this month the teen played around with a filter that added piercings to her face. In the clip posted Jan. 3, North revealed a series of piercings on the bridge of her face while she filmed the video alongside her friend. Proving there was more ice that meets the eye, as the video ends, North flashes a smile for the camera, showcasing a blacked-out grill that covered all her teeth.
When it comes to her creative style and piercing choices, Kim—who also shares kids Saint, 10, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6, with Kanye—knows she’s raising a kid with confidence.
“She'll be like, 'Mom, I saw this and I don't really care if someone says they don't like my blue hair, or my this or that,’” the Kardashians star told Alex Cooper on the Oct. 15 episode of Call Her Daddy. “And she's really confident and is like, ‘I probably wouldn't be hanging out with those people.’”

Wanna Bet?
North West never forgets her bets.
Kim Kardashian shocked TikTok last January when she unveiled a surprising transformation that included a heavy face of makeup and dark eyebrows. Kim finished the beauty routine by putting on a nude lip and fake lashes, posing for the camera while chewing gum and lip-syncing to Millie B's viral song "M to the B."
While The Kardashians star's fans were initially confused, Kim later revealed that her 10-year-old daughter was responsible for the eyebrow-raising look, tweeting, "The bribes and bet losing I have going on with North is unreal!"
Read the Sign
North had a message to send to the paparazzi when she accompanied Kim to Paris Fashion Week last summer, famously holding up a piece of paper that said "Stop."
After their trip, Kim took to Twitter to reveal the backstory behind North's note.
"For anyone who knows North knows how funny she finds this video!" Kim wrote in a July 7 tweet. "North I guess had it with the people taking pictures of her so she wrote on her invite STOP and held it up."
According to Kim, North simply "wanted them to just focus on the show" and not her.
Imitation Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery
North trolled her mother in epic fashion—pun fully intended—when she recreated her Balenciaga packing tape look from Paris Fashion Week 2022.
In a TikTok that July, North wrapped a few strands of the tape Kim used around her black t-shirt, completing her look by donning a platinum blonde wig. Not only did she dress like Kim, North also poked fun at her mom even further by lip-syncing alongside an audio that featured a few of Kim's iconic Keeping Up With the Kardashians quotes alongside Megan Thee Stallion's song "Savage."
Of course, North recreated the infamous moment where Kim lost her diamond earring in Bora Bora, as well as when she hit Khloé Kardashian with a purse all while telling her not to be rude.
Eyebrow-Raising Behavior
In a Dec. 18 TikTok video posted to their join account, North pranked Kim by pretending to shave the SKIMS mogul's brows off as she slept in bed.
"So funny, the fake eyebrows filter," the caption over the video read, with North was using a camera filter to make Kim's eyebrows appear thinner onscreen.
So, how did Kim react after being woken up by North? After opening her eyes and seeing what's on screen, the reality star quipped, "North, this is not funny."
Extreme Special Effects
Anyone who follows Kim and North's TiKTok account knows North is as gifted as her mom when it comes to makeup. In fact, her skills might be a little too good as Kim revealed one of her pranks involving special effects makeup almost got the cops involved.
"I have a teacher come and show her special effects makeup—where it's like wounds and blood and tons of stuff," Kim explained to Allure in July 2022. "She's actually so good that I rented a house this summer and she took all of her special effects makeup and she decided not only to prank me and do it on her and Chicago, but she made the whole room look like a murder scene."
Because she was tired, Kim left the mess to clean up the next morning. "I had to rush out the door and go to school," Kim continued. "The housekeeper came and tried to call the authorities and called the homeowner thinking that it was a full, real murder scene."
"It was bad," Kim said. "I have photos and it's crazy."
A New Way to Roast Your Vegetables
North clearly doesn't beet around the bush.
When Kim took to her Instagram Story to show off freshly picked crops from her home garden last April, not everyone was impressed by her bounty of "cute" carrots, kale, leeks and beets. "They look disgusting," North quipped off-camera while Kim was filming her healthy haul.
In the caption, Kim also poked fun of daughter's unprompted honesty, writing, "Thanks North."
Talk That Talk
Forget a baby voice, Kim clearly has social media speech.
"Why do you talk different?" North asked a September 2011 video, noting that Kim changes up the way she sounds for her clips.
A surprised Kim responded, "From my videos? I'm the same human being. I don't talk different." Kim then inquired if she speaks differently when she films videos about makeup contouring, which prompted North to imitate her mom's glam tutorial voice.
Sour Indeed
It's brutal out there for a mom of an Olivia Rodrigo fan.
When the "driver's license" singer sent Kim a PR package filled with merch in May 2021, the KKW Beauty founder shared the gift on her Instagram Story. "You guys know I love 'drivers license,'" Kim told the camera.
However, an off-camera North was standing by to call her out, claiming, "You never listen to it." A shocked Kim laughed before telling her, "Yes, I do! I listen to it all the time. Stop, North." Kim captioned the video with "NORTH!!!!!" along with three laughing-crying emojis.
