The best [Kanye West](http://time.com/4411055/kanye-west-taylor-swift-kim-kardashian-feud/) song is a topic that’s hotly debated by [Kanye stans](http://time.com/4801810/eminem-stan-oxford-english-dictionary/) and music enthusiasts alike, but his four-year-old daughter [North West](http://time.com/4772845/north-west-time-out-spa-day/) already knows what her favorite song of his is, thank you very much.

The tiny heir to the Kimye empire opened up about her father’s music in the most recent issue of [_Interview Magazine_](http://www.interviewmagazine.com/culture/north-west), where she shared the cover with her [reality TV celebutante mother Kim Kardashian West](http://time.com/4677589/keeping-up-with-the-kattarshians/), posing for a Jackie O-themed photo shoot.

North revealed that her favorite Kanye track is “Amazing” because, according to her, it’s “so amazing.” It’s rogue but decisive pick from the youngster, especially considering that it comes from one of Kanye’s less-lauded albums, the spare, auto-tuned _808s and Heartbreak_. Kardashian West also shared via Snapchat that North’s taste in Kanye’s music definitely skews towards the “Old Kanye,” as North’s playlist featured Kanye’s sophomore studio album _Late Registration_.
