Kanye gives his wife  a hard time about her busy schedule but she thinks he shouldn’t complain. He’s also  busy working on music and fashion, and then he goes off to Vegas instead of spending time with her and the kids.You can see why Kim thinks it’s not right that she’s the one getting all the blame for working so much.
