Kim Kardashian's Music-Making: Inspired By Kanye

Studios in New York City on Wednesday evening (January 19). Decked out in her third outfit of the day, the E! reality star was escorted inside for an interview alongside sister Kourtney as the duo promote their new spinoff show "Kourtney & Kim Take New York". Aside from plugging their series - which kicks off on Sunday, January 23 - Kim told that her decision to hit the studio with The Dream to record a one-off track called "Turn It Up" was influenced by "All Of the Lights" hitmaker Kanye West. She dished, "OK, I'm not a singer, this isn't what I do. I have too much other stuff going on. Is this really something safe for me to do? And Kanye was actually one of the people who really talked me into doing it and telling me, like, 'Hey, look, what do you guys do for fun? You guys go shopping, you go to the movies. Kind of step into our world for a second and have fun, and we go to the studio." Further explaining that the advice came when Kanye popped in to visit her at her new Dash store, Miss Kardashian said, "Kanye came to see the store and check out what we were doing in New York City. He's someone we look up to and just think as like, in the fashion world ... someone that we've always just taken advice from." "He wanted to come check out the store, and while at the store, I was really uncertain about the music thing," Kim added. "I'm just doing it for fun, and The-Dream wrote and produced the song, and Ciara talked me into doing it and said I should meet with him."
