Glad to see an industry man calling this out. I’m appalled by what Kim and Kanye are allowing North to be exposed to at 13 without a parent present!

When a completely unrelated and uninvolved person has more common sense, care and protective instinct for a child than that child’s parents, there’s something really wrong.
And shame on these grown men for crossing very obvious boundaries. That’s a 13-year-old (!), no matter how famous her parents may be.
Opalvoyager0 on
This is what happens when both parents prioritize building a brand over protecting a childhood. North should be making friends her own age, not constantly being pushed into adult spaces where grown PREDATORY people have access to her. Fame should never come before a child’s boundaries.

I’m so out of the loop. What happened?
Yes I know Kim and Kanye are shitty parents, but did anything specific happen this time?
aftercloudia on
this and the fact they don’t have her in physical therapy for her knock knees to me is pure neglect. if they didn’t have money they’d have cps at their door.
PurpleIntention7934 on
She should probably be protected from her parents too…
What the fuck are Kim and Kanye doing?? Even if the men in this photo aren’t actively taking advantage of her, she is clearly on her own. They *could* and they all know that they could.
Teenagers deserve safe independence with people their own age and trusted adults. This is so sad.

Her parents are failing her
Colour4Life on
Wow! I actually agree with him on something for once lol
Just wanted to show ya’ll how devastatingly gorgeous this man is. In case ya’ll weren’t aware 😩
taylorsamo on
Nobody is protecting that poor girl (not surprising considering her family, of course, but it’s still depressing)

I did not know who skepta was until today but I will definitely be checking his work out. Bravo

I honestly don’t understand how Kim allows for North to be on social media and be exposed to such nonsense in this day and age. There are people online who make the highly offensive and racist comments about North looking “much older” which is something that black children have always suffered from when it comes to situations where they were perceived or judged to be older than they are. In North’s case, people hugging or touching her when she isn’t uncomfortable is chalked up to her being or looking “mature”. No she’s not. SHe’s just a kid.

While he’s at it, why not dirextl call out the idiot parents who are allowing a 13 year old attend events with grown men by herself.
Hot-Clerk504 on
Skepta should have that same energy for all the rapists in the grime scene… don’t ever remember him calling out Tim Westwood or anyone else either for that matter can’t just pick and choose who you want to pick out
summerhappies on
the man is not wrong, hugging isn’t bad but that changes fast when you have to remember this is a 13 year old. WHERE TF IS KIM. GET YOUR ASS UP AND WORK FOR HER.
omg wait i need to clarify, the man is skepta

Lewis come get your step daughter
Away-Equipment4869 on
Manny Sol needs to be on a watch list. We know exactly why grown men want to hug on a 13 year old. Insidious shit. Makes me wanna fight.
ruready8514 on
It’s absolutely INSANE. She is 13 YEARS OLD. She is out in grown up parties and festivals and spaces without her parents anywhere to be seen…with handlers.
She seems to have multiple facial piercings, and teeth grills, and hair dye… again.. SHE IS 13. Her parents needed to be called out and shamed for this neglect. Absolute despicable narcissists, so self involved they couldn’t be bothered being parents.
AgentBrittany on
Seriously, her parents are failing her but it’s not surprising in the least. Protect your fucking daughter.
flirtydodo on
There are 50000 members in that family and I have suffered through every single one of them. Yet, they can’t fucking spare a single person to escort a kid who shouldn’t be there in first place
GnarlyyyxRadicalll on
I blame her mother.
GorillaShelb on
As a mother I see many kids have a light in their eyes. It breaks my heart seeing kids who are very young no longer have that look:( I hope she’s got someone watching over her.
urMOMSchesticles on
I’ve been saying this for the longest time!!! Every time I try to talk about this to someone, they say I’m being dramatic.
Kim is literally grooming North to be apart of this industry without a care for her safety. She literally has a concert coming up in my city and luckily most of the comments are “a 13 year old at this venue???? what the hell??”
I notice when she’s posted on The Shaderoom, most of the comments are “she’s rich, she’s allowed to do whatever she wants” instead of concern that she’s 13, without her parents, being surrounded by random adults that want pictures/to hang out with her. I’m glad I finally found a post where I don’t feel crazy.
nagidrac on
What stuns me is that the video Skepta posted was not this video. So the fact that there’s two videos of two different older men wanting to take a photo with her and hugging is so damn crazy and uncomfortable.
This Kardashian shit is never going to end, is it?
Artistic-Lock1021 on
I really wish that social services took an interest in rich people because why is this CHILD travelling internationally without her parents and having random strange men grab her?
shess0sw33t on
he’s so right though, there’s too many grown men trying to be near her or associate with her in order to have proximity to kanye. i also found it weird and uncomfortable when young thug shouted her out in the crowd at coachella. she’s a child. none of these grown men should be carrying on with her like this and they should know better regardless of whether her parents are around or not.
CommonUnlucky390 on
Tk you Skepta. The pr machines like Complex are doing far too much in trying to normalise this.
AnxiousKettleCorn on
I was on a random twitch livestream, like the guy had 12 viewers, but sometimes small ones have a sweet community… why was this GROWN man insulting a 13 year old and how she walks? I called him and and reminded him it was a 13 year old child and he got so defensive and started blathering about how he had to release a twitter longer because he was being ableist or some shit.
Fkn weirdos man. The way people treat young black girls like they’re adults because some happen to be a bit more physically developed, when they are STILL A FUCKING CHILD.
Chaoticgood790 on
He’s right but let’s be real…her family exploits her the most
NewtRipley_1986 on
Everyone in her life is failing her. She’s being used by her entire family and any one they’ve hired to work with her. They don’t give a shit about her actual safety, security or happiness. That family is soulless, heartless and pathetic.
