Ye Brings Out His Four Children to Perform ‘Everybody’ at China Concert: Watch
Ye — formerly known as Kanye West — made his return to China for his first performance in 16 years on Sunday (Sept. 15) alongside Ty Dolla $ign.
It was a family affair in Haikou, China. West brought his wife Bianca Censori, all four of his children and his ex Kim Kardashian with him for the show. North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm even hit the Wuyuan River Sports Stadium stage with their dad for a performance of his fan-favorite shelved Vultures track “Everybody.”

Eldest daughter North West and her furry hat led the charge as she held hands with her siblings through the fake amber high-grass field making up the stage. Fans cheered on the family reunion while singing along to the Backstreet Boys-sampling chorus sang by Charlie Wilson. “Goosebumps,” one person replied.
West also revealed plans for his next solo album, debuting a heavenly new track at the Haikou show titled “Preacher Man.”
It appears Ye and the team could be extending their stay in China as rumors of a second show have circulated in Haikou on social media slated for Saturday night (Sept. 21).
West bringing his kids on stage to perform isn’t too unfamiliar to his audience. He previously had North join him at his Vultures listening experience in Paris back in February, which saw her sing along to her “Talking” track on the Vultures album.
“Talking” debuted at No. 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Kim Kardashian congratulated her daughter on the accomplishment, which saw her become one of the youngest acts ever to hit the Hot 100. “My baby,” she wrote to her Instagram Story.
West is busy outside of his own music as well. He appears to have a hand in Playboi Carti’s upcoming Music album. Carti shouted-out Yeezy while hyping his LP on social media last week.
“@Ye KANT WAIT 2 SHOW THE WORLD WHAT WE BEEN WORKIN ON WIT DIS ALBUM WE DA REAL 5L NO DOUBT,” he wrote over a photo of the “All Red” cover art.
