Singer Kanye West has just acquired two armored SUVs that he will be using on his next tour.

Editors at Jalopnik suggest that Kanye is worried now that his baby daughter, North West has been born.

The vehicles are Dartz Prombrons, produced and armored in Latvia. They have been manufactured based on the design of the Mercedes G-Class.

The publication also mentions that versions of the large SUVs have been used in “The Dictator” movie. They can resist grenade and rocket attacks, so they should suit Kanye's needs.

Normally, these armored cars cost around $400,000 (€300,000), but it appears that the rapper has asked for some crazy options, including diamond-encrusted snake skin.

Do you think that Kanye is trying to keep North safe or is this just another tacky, over-the-top trophy for the rapper? Leave your answer below.
