10 Kanye West Lyrics the "Kimye Baby" Will One Day Be Embarrassed About

World, prepare for the "Kimye" child.

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's child is bound to be the most narcisstic tot to walk the face of the earth. Let's just hope that Baby Kimye ends up innocent and adorable and doesn't go the way of his or her sex tape-making parents.

The media is already critical of Kim's changing body and HuffPo used technology to come up with some rather creepy image composites of what Kimye might look like.

Most gossip sites focus on Kiki and overlook the skeletons in Yeezy's closet. It's weird to listen to Watch the Throne knowing that in a few months, both 'Ye and Jay-Z will be dads. Blue Ivy may be down with "Big Pimpin'," but we can't help but wonder what Yeezy will share with his child. We got a head start by finding the 10 lyrics that may embarrass Papa Kanye in a few years.

Kanye West Brags About (and Hangs Out With) Kim Kardashian In New Video

If you've had "Mercy" on repeat for the past couple of months, you'll be pleased to know that Kanye West and Rick Ross appear in the double-video/double-single, "I Wish You Would"/"Cold." Hype Williams combined both of these songs in a long, shaky, headache-inducing music video that you can watch after the jump. But as good as Ross and Khaled's performances are, chances are the cameo most exciting to pop fans is the barely noticeable one from 'Ye's "Perfect Bitch," Kim Kardashian.

Despite a release date of Tuesday, September 4, and recently unveiled cover art, it's hard to say exactly what to expect from Kanye West's upcoming G.O.O.D. Music compilation Cruel Summer (though "Perfect Bitch," his ode to Kim Kardashian is probably going to be on there).

Rumors indicate a massive guest list, potentially including Frank Ocean, Jay Electronica, Marsha Ambrosius , Q-Tip, Kid Cudi, John Legend, Common, Mr Hudson, Cyhi da Prince, Mos Def, Teyana Taylor, Malik Yusuf, members of Odd Future, Jay-Z, and who-knows-who-else. To be it softly, the record is highly anticipated.

Not even G.O.O.D. Music producer Lifted, who splits his time in Phoenix and Los Angeles, knows what to expect, aside from one concrete detail: It's going to include the mega-hit he produced, the thundering and ominous "Mercy," featuring West, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, and Pusha T.
