Kanye's song, Talking/Once Again, which features a verse from his eldest child North, earned its spot on the Billboard Hot 100.

Just two weeks after its release, the track has hit number 30 on the chart.

The rapper shared the news of his daughter's major success on his Instagram Stories on Wednesday.

He reposted a photo of the little girl from the account @chartdata on X (formerly Twitter) where it confirmed the song's addition to the major music chart.

Kanye left his post captionless.

NORTH'S VERSE

Earlier this month, the rapper dropped a music video for his song with Ty Dolla $ign, Talking/Once Again, that featured North.

The little girl rapped the lines, "It's your bestie. Miss, Miss Westie!"

"Don't tryna test me. It's gonna get messy. Just, just bless me. Bless me!"

This wasn't the first time fans heard the song as Kanye debuted it at the listening parties for his new album, Vultures 1.

In the video, North was seen singing her verse while getting her hair braided.

The young star whispered something to her father and sat on his shoulders in the clips.

FAN OPINIONS

Fans have mixed feelings regarding the launch of North's music career at such a young age.

One shared the music video to a Kardashian-themed Reddit forum where they asked others' opinions.

A second said, "Why did this have such a weird vibe to it??? Like she’s 10 and man I hate Kim but him going off about her making tiktoks and then this??"

Another wrote, "It's just really sad."

"Ridiculous & unnecessary. They’re really forcing this kid on the public," a harsh critic explained.

A fourth said, "She is going to need so much therapy throughout her life. My heart hurts for her."

"I wanna make something clear - this isn't about expanding [North West's] talent or self-expression - this has always been about NW being an extension of Kanye/Kim, in a narcissistic way," a fifth scathed.

A sixth chimed in, "Nothing against her because she's only a kid. This is just so cringe."

RISING STAR

Back in December, North rapped on stage with her dad in Miami during the launch party for his new album, Vultures 1.

North joined Kanye and the rapper's collaborator Ty Dolla $ign on stage to debut her verse in front of an audience.

The crowd went wild as North danced and belted the lyrics with the flair of a seasoned performer.

Kanye, who was dressed in all-black, rocked side-to-side as he vibed to his daughter's verse.

North also sported all-black attire, which included an oversized leather jacket and a Carhartt jumpsuit, as she performed in front of a crowd of screaming fans.
