Kim Kardashian has always been Kanye West's leading lady.
The couple famously tied the knot two years ago, but as the rapper exclusively revealed to E! News, his performances were often inspired by the reality star long before they officially started dating.
"Her [spirit] was there even before she was my girlfriend," Yeezy told E! News' Ken Baker. "I would do these performances and hope that she would see me in my cool outfit and think that I would be cool enough to be her boyfriend."
Pretty adorable, right? As fate would have it, Kim must have fallen head over heels for the hitmaker's onstage looks because now they are more in love than ever with two little ones of their own. West kicked off his 39-date Saint Pablo tour on Thursday, and while the "Ultralight Beam" artist says he doesn't go a day without talking to Kim, he misses his family of four "more than anything."
Not to fear, though. The 35-year-old will soon join her hubby on the road, and North and Saint West are coming along as well!
"To be able to see my daughter and my son and my wife, it's amazing," he said, adding, "I feel extremely blessed and I'd like to do everything I can to give as dope a performance, give all of that energy to the crowd, have people have as good as time as possible and feel inspired."
The 21-time Grammy winner also told us he hopes to "take the concert experience to the next level," explaining, "It's not just about what you're seeing on the screen or what you're seeing me doing up on the stage, but what you and your friends are doing. I want people to come to the Pablo shows and know it's just going to be the best time they've had in their life."
