Kanye West is hitting back at estranged wife Kim Kardashian after she released a fiery statement in response to West's claim their daughter North West is on TikTok against Kanye's "will."
"What do you mean by main provider?" West asked, referring to Kardashian's claim she is their children's primary caregiver.
Kanye added, "America saw you try to kid nap [sic] my daughter on her birthday by not providing the address You put security on me inside of the house to play with my son then accused me of stealing I had to take a drug test after [daughter] Chicago’s party cause you accused me of being on drugs [Kardashian's chief marketing officer] Tracy Romulus stop manipulating Kim to be this way …"

West had publicly claimed Kardashian and her family had refused to give him the address to Chicago's birthday party in a video shared by TMZ. However, West did show up to the party, according to photos from social media. The address of the party was given to the rapper as soon as he asked for it, Fox News Digital learned.
The hip-hop artist took to Instagram Friday and shared a screenshot of 8-year-old North on the video-sharing platform.

"SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST DIVORCE I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT MY DAUGHTER BEING PUT ON TIK TOK AGAINST MY WILL ?" the 44-year-old captioned the image.
A spokesperson for Kardashian gave Fox News Digital the following statement from the star:
"Kanye's constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create," she wrote. "As the parent who is the main provider and caregiver for our children, I am doing my best to protect our daughter while also allowing her to express her creativity in the medium that she wishes with adult supervision — because it brings her happiness.
KANYE WEST, KIM KARDASHIAN DIVORCE: WHAT'S AT STAKE?
"Divorce is difficult enough on our children, and Kanye's obsession with trying to control and manipulate our situation so negatively and publicly is only causing further pain for all," Kardashian, 41, added.
"From the beginning, I have wanted nothing but a healthy and supportive co-parenting relationship because it is what is best for our children, and it saddens me that Kanye continues to make it impossible every step of the way.
"I wish to handle all matters regarding our children privately, and hopefully he can finally respond to the third attorney he has had in the last year to resolve any issues amicably," Kardashian concluded.
The reality star was spotted for the first time on Friday amid all of the public drama with West. For the outing, Kardashian wore black sunglasses and a matching puffer jacket. Her hair was pulled back.
In an interview with "Hollywood Unlocked" last month, West said he places his children first in everything he does, which was a big factor in his decision to buy a home next door to Kardashian. He wants to be able to see the children as often as possible.
The outlet’s founder, Jason Lee, told West he should have "the right to have an opinion over how your kids are exactly being raised."
"I've got more than a right. I'm their father," West replied in the sit-down conversation. "It's all about trying to take the fathers out the home. I'm going to be so close – the kids are literally in walking distance. I don't play when it comes to my children, and the media ain't gonna play with me and run this narrative."
Lee maintained to West that he hopes Kardashian and her family can see how important it is for West to be able to "participate in the lives of the people you created."
West replied that he wants to "participate without no noise."

"I'm a tell you straight up, don't play. Don't play with my kids," he said. "Don't play with my kids, whoever y'all work for, whoever y'all think the family is working for. I'm telling you right now, don't play with my children, and it's going to be all legal. It's going to be all legal, baby."
Added West: "You ain't gonna gaslight me. It ain't gonna be nothing, it's gonna be calm like this. But that's where we're not gonna play. And this is for everybody that's ever been in a situation like this that didn't have a voice, this is what we're on. This is what time it is. I got the house right next to my children."
