Cleaning out my phone and found this old pic from Japan at the Tadao Ando Museum.
In the hologram, her father tells her how much he loves her, and how proud he is of the woman she's become.
"Happy Birthday Kimberly! Look at you! You're 40 and all grown up."
"You look beautiful just like when you were a little girl."
He continued, "I watch over you and your sisters and brother and the kids everyday."
"Sometimes I drop hints that I'm around like when you hear someone make a big peefee."
"Remember when I would drive you to school in my tiny Mercedes everyday and we would listen to this song together."
The hologram danced to the 1961 track Who Put The Bomp by Barry Mann.
"I am so proud of the woman you have become, Kimberly, and all that you've accomplished."
"All of your hard work, all of the businesses you have built are incredible."
He continued, "But most impressive is your commitment to become a lawyer and and carry on my legacy."
"It's a long and a hard road, but it's worth it."
"And I am with you every step of the way," the hologram added.

Kim tweeted a video of the hologram, 'For my birthday, Kanye got me the most thoughtful gift of a lifetime.'
'A special surprise from heaven. A hologram of my dad.'
'It is so lifelike! We watched it over and over, filled with emotion.'

How did Kanye pull it off?
According to TMZ's sources, Kanye paid attention to all the things his wife told him about her father over the years.
She apparently told him that Robert was always so supportive of her.
Sources told the outlet that Kanye spent a lot of time in studio studying old video footage of Robert.
It's believed the rapper began the project in early September.
And they reportedly used Artificial intelligence to finish it.
Meanwhile, Kim's sister Khloé has defended her against backlash over her private island birthday trip.
