If you were wondering what kind of father Kanye West is, HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned he is the ‘doting’ kind. A source close to the rapper revealed that he absolutely loves reading and singing to his baby girl. How cute is that?

Kanye West, 36, is good at so many things — including being a father to his daughter North West, 1. Even though the rapper is often away touring the world, he makes good use of the time he does spend with Nori. Kanye loves reading and singing to his daughter, who has not only captivated his heart but keeps him in a constant state of “awe.” So sweet!

Kanye West’s Doting Dad Habits: Loves Reading & Singing To North

It’s not often you see a soft side from Kanye, but we have proof that it DOES exist.

That’s right, the rapper who is best known for his wild antics and on-stage rants doesn’t find any of that as important as he does his daughter, North.

“[Kanye] marvels at his little angel and it’s disgusting — disgustingly adorable. There are really no words to describe how much he’s in awe of North,” a source close to Kanye revealed EXCLUSIVELY to HollywoodLife.com.

“But he loves the small, more sentimental things too. He likes reading to her. He sings to her too,” the source continued to share.

Can you just imagine? Kanye sitting in a rocking chair, cradling his super cute daughter, and singing her lullabies? SO. SWEET.

And how does Kanye make North smile? Well, we’re sure she always smiles when she sees her daddy — “pa” was her first word, after all — but he’s also got a sweet trick up his sleeve that works every time.

“One of his favorite things to do is kiss on her cheeks and make her smile.”

Kanye, you big softie!

Kanye Sees Himself & His Mom In North

One thing that truly touches Kanye’s heart is that he sees so much of himself as well as his late mother, Donda West, in North.

“There have been times where he just looks at her and cries as he sees himself and Donda in her eyes,” our source revealed.

Unfortunately, Donda passed away from a tragic accident long before Kanye was even dating his now-wife, Kim Kardashian, so she never got to meet their daughter.

Thankfully, Kanye can rest easy knowing that his mom is looking down on her granddaughter at all times.

Tell us, HollywoodLifers — Did you think Kanye was as wonderful as a father as HL just revealed? Do you think he and Kim will ever have another baby? Let us know your thoughts below!
