Kanye West appeared to be in good spirits after leaving his daughter Chicago's fourth birthday party on Saturday. 

On Sunday, TMZ posted a video in which the 44-year-old rapper was seen smiling as he drove away from the celebration while revealing that he might not have made it without the help of Travis Scott.

'I'm so happy right now, I just came from Chi's party,' Kanye said in the clip.

Just made it: Kanye West appeared to be in good spirits in a video shared Sunday by TMZ after leaving his daughter Chicago's fourth birthday party on Saturday, which he said he only got to because Travis Scott gave him 'the address and time'

He continued, 'I just gotta shout out to Travis Scott for sending me the address and the time and making sure that I was able to spend that birthday memory with my daughter and to be there with the rest of the family.'

The Flashing Lights hitmaker shares Chicago and with daughter North, eight, and sons Saint, six, and Psalm, two, with his estranged wife Kim Kardashian, 41.

The Grammy Award winner mentioned seeing a few members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, but did not name Kim specifically.

Good times: On Sunday, TMZ posted a video in which the 44-year-old rapper was seen smiling as he drove away from the celebration.

'I saw everybody, it was you know, Kris, Corey and Kylie... Kylie let me in right when I got to the spot because the security stopped me once again when I got there,' he said.

'And you know, it's just a matter of having a conversation, open dialogue, and everyone just had a great time. 

'I'm just really happy that I could be there for my children and I just want to thank everyone for their support in the situation. Letting me just calmly and legally take control of my narrative.'

The Atlanta native concluded his video by emphasizing his dedication to his children. 

'I know we disagree and people have different opinions on a lot of different things that I do but with this one, this is my main focus. My life centers around my children and I just had a great time today,' he said.

This comes after reports that things were so tense between Kanye and Kim that the parents had to stay at 'opposite sides' of the party.

Though there reportedly was no 'scene' between the divorcing couple, a source told The Sun on Sunday that they kept their distance throughout the party. 

Kanye's appearance at the party comes after he alleged on social media that he was not 'allowed to know' where the party was taking place, though it was later claimed that there were supposed to be two parties for Chicago.

According to the source, Kanye arrived at the party in a frenzy.

'When he finally got the address he arrived like a bat out of hell in a rental car around 1 p.m., driving himself without any security,' they shared.

Despite his apparent anger in his self-shot video, he apparently put that aside once he was with his children. 

'He seemed okay once he started talking to the family and was in great spirits laughing and playing with Chicago, it seems he just wanted to be involved in her day and didn’t want to cause trouble,' they continued.

The rapper and the shapewear mogul had 'no scene' during the party, and barely had any interactions.

'There was no scene between him and Kim but they did spend most of the afternoon at other ends of the garden. He chatted with Kris and some other family members but there was no deep discussion with Kim yet.'

The source added: 'He left after about an hour and drove himself back home.'

Previously, Kanye claimed he was not 'allowed to know' the location of his daughter Chicago's fourth birthday party in a video he recorded on Saturday.

West — who shares Chicago and three other children with his estranged wife Kim Kardashian — made the allegations as he drove around town, seemingly in search of the party.

However, in video posted to Atiana de la Hoya's Instagram account, Kanye could be seen attending the party.

'I'm just wishing my daughter a public happy birthday. I wasn't allowed to know where her party was,' Kanye said in the video. 'There's nothing legal that saying that this is the kind of games that's being played, it's the kind of thing that really has affected my health for the longest and I'm just not playing, I'm taking control of my narrative this year. 

'I was supposed to be in Miami recording my album. My whole schedule is all based around on me being able to take my kids to school, me being there for them, making sure that I'm in their life, that's the whole point, I have the money they take so many fathers just throughout America, they've been taking the fathers out of homes purposely so I'm speaking up, I'm using my voice to say, "This ain't going to keep happening, this narrative and that... happened."

'It's a lot of people that's not in a position where they ain't got no voice when people be playing games like this, baby mamas be playing games, the grandmas will be playing games like this, and it's like as y'all know, that ain't going to play like that with me.'

Sources, however, say Kim and Kanye had actually planned on having two separate parties for their daughter.

Kanye was set to have his party Saturday at 4PM. However, it was news to Kim and the rest of the family that he had made a video alleging he had not been invited. 

The insider says the invite allegations were untrue, and Kanye was given the information about the second party once he decided to come. He is now in attendance.

Kardashian didn't publicly respond to the drama on social media, where she uploaded a sweet birthday tribute to her little girl and documented the party throughout the day. 

'My birthday baby girl Chi Chi turns 4 today! My independent baby girl twin. You are the most lovable huggable snuggable baby girl on the planet,' she captioned a slideshow of photos with her youngest daughter. 

She continued: 'The ultimate princess! I can’t wait to celebrate with all of the Barbies and LOL Dolls a girl could dream of lol. You really have brought so much joy into our family and I love you so so soooo much!!!!'

In a statement to Page Six, Kim's divorce lawyer Laura Wasser shutdown any notion that the children are being 'kept' from Kanye. 

'Mr. West being kept from the children, by security or anyone else, is news to us. Both parties' priority has always been the children maintaining strong bonds with each of their parents throughout this transition and beyond,' the statement read.

A source also told TMZ that all that Kim 'has asked Kanye to do is call ahead of time when he wants to come to her house to see the children' because she 'simply wants some structure in order to protect her right to privacy in her home.'

West continued: 'Earlier this week, Monday, when I went to go pick my kids up from [sic] school, the security stopped me at the gate.

'So at that point, security was in between me and my children and that's what was not going to happen,' he claimed to the host.

'But I didn't want to argue about it. So I just chilled, took my kids to school, and then took my kids back. I am driving. I bring them back and North was like, 'I want you to come upstairs and see something.' And it's like, 'Oh, Daddy can't come see something. Daddy can't come inside.' But that hadn't been defined.

'My daughter wanted me to go inside. I was like, I am the richest Black man and North's father, right, and the security was able to stop me from going into the room with my daughter and that had not been defined.

Priorities: Kanye said in his video on Sunday that his four children are his priority

'And I am hearing that the new boyfriend is actually in the house that I can't even go to.'

Kanye then claimed that he called on two of his female 'cousins' to speak to security on his behalf.

'That's where I call my cousins. And my cousins is real opinionated, you know that. And I said, 'I need you to go and say these two things: Security ain't going to be in between me and my children, and my children ain't going to be on TikTok without my permission.''

He insisted that the alleged confrontation between Kardashian's 'security' and his 'female cousins; was 'non-aggressive' and that he 'simply' wanted to relay some things to his estranged partner.

'Just to say really simply like, look, for us to be - Certain words I don't like, co-parent - like, from where I am from, you're my baby mama. So for us to be cordial and civil, there are certain things that are not finna be done and be done under the rug,' Kanye said.

Later in the interview, Kanye once again alluded to Kim's beau Pete Davidson by bringing up the kiss they shared during a Saturday Night Live sketch when she hosted back in October.

'This is for anybody that's going through a separation, and people intentionally do things to be mean and hurt you… to be playing games,' he said.

'How you gonna bring me to SNL and kiss the dude you dating right in front of me, and everybody's like, ''Aw, that's cool.''

He continued: 'I can have my principles and things I've changed things, and I backslide, and I haven't been the best Christian and things the media can make seem some kind of ways… But at the end of the day, I'm Jesus gang.

'I'm about family, just me and my kids, parenting. And I mean, my kids' mom we not together. I'm still gonna be the best dad.' 

Sweet: Kanye West , 44, is reportedly planning to tear down the home he has purchased for a whopping $4.5 million across the street from his estranged wife Kim Kardashian, 41, and their kids (Kim and Kanye pictured with North and Saint) 

The comments come after reports claimed Kanye is still 'pursuing' his ex Kim, despite having moved on in a new relationship with Julia Fox.

For the most part, the former couple's divorce has gone smoothly, and the former couple had been acting cordially towards each this past year. 

There have also been reports that Kim is happy that Kanye has found a new love interest in Uncut Gems star Julia, giving the relationship her full blessing. 

However, West surprised fans by releasing a diss track aimed at Kardashian's new boyfriend Pete, threatening to 'beat his a**' over the weekend.
