About

Napping Kanye is a photoshop meme based on an Instagram photograph of the American hip hop artist Kanye West and his daughter North West napping on display furniture while shopping at a Los Angeles nursery store in February 2016.

Origin

On February 21st, 2016, Kim Kardashian posted an Instagram of her husband Kanye West and their two-year-old daughter North napping in the middle of a Bel Bambini boutique nursery store while out on a day of shopping with fellow celebrity couple John Legend and Chrissy Teigen in Los Angeles, California (shown below). Within the first 72 hours of the post, Kardashian's Instagram photo garnered over 1.4 million likes and 23,400 comments.

The next day, Redditor Joeval83 submmitted the Instagram image to /r/PhtoshopBattles in a post titled "Kanye West caught snoozing at the baby store," which quickly garnered several dozens of photoshopped parodies in the comments section, including a couple of notable mashup instances featuring the subject behind the Sleeping on the First Day of Internship meme that had taken off on the previous week (shown below).

As the /r/PhotoshopBattles thread continued to gain momentum on the frontpage of Reddit, many celebrity gossip blogs[6][8][9] and entertainment news sites[3][4][5][7] began reporting on the latest photoshop parody meme centered around Kanye West, who had recently returned to his home in Los Angeles after going on a highly publicized media blitz in New York to promote the release of his latest album The Life Of Pablo.
