North West Reveals Who Inspires Her Style — and It’s Not Her Mom Kim Kardashian
In March 2024, North announced her debut album, titled Elementary School Dropout, while attending a listening party for her dad’s album Vultures 2, according to Forbes.
As she stood on stage in Phoenix, North shared the special news. “I’ve been working on an album…” she said, prompting the crowd to erupt into cheers. She went on to reveal the album’s title, which is a direct reference to her dad’s 2004 album The College Dropout.
In October 2024, North opened up to Interview Magazine about how her dad is her style inspiration.
In a clip of their chat posted by her mother, 43, on her Instagram Stories, she asked North as she sat in a chair looking at the camera, “What’s your favorite style right now?”
“I like streetwear and ’90s. Tyler, the Creator; my dad; me!” North replied.
