West, 47, recently dropped a song titled Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine on X (formerly Twitter), which features North, alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs and his son Christian “King” Combs. The release has ignited tensions with Kardashian, 44, who allegedly attempted to prevent the song from coming out.

Screenshots of text messages shared by West reveal Kardashian reminding him that North’s name was trademarked to protect her from unauthorized use.

She allegedly told him, “I asked you at the time if I can trademark her name. You said yes. When she’s 18, it goes to her. So stop. I sent paperwork over so she wouldn’t be in the Diddy song to protect her. One person has to trademark! We agreed when they were born I would get all of our kids’ names and trademarks so no one else would take them.”

West fired back with strong words, saying, “Amend it or I’m going to war. And neither of us will recover from the public fallout.” He also added, “You’re going to have to kill me.”

In an effort to stop the release, Kardashian is said to have sent legal notices demanding a cease-and-desist. This resulted in an emergency hearing with a mediator and a judge. While West allegedly did not attend, sources claim he agreed not to release the track.

Despite Kardashian’s legal maneuvering, West proceeded with the release, further escalating their conflict. Insiders suggest that she is primarily concerned about North’s association with West’s ongoing controversies and Combs’ legal troubles.

This latest dispute underscores the ongoing friction between the former couple, particularly regarding their children’s involvement in West’s music and public endeavors.
