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 and we watched it over and over, filled with lots so tears and emotion. I can’t even describe what this meant to me and my sisters, my brother, my mom and closest friends to experience together. Thank you so much Kanye for this memory that will last a lifetime ✨

Kim and her family were very touched with the gift as they were able to witness the lifelike image of her beloved dad talking to them. The use of technology to resurrect the infamous people has been the soft spot and the hologram of the Kardashian patriarch also raised the hype. 

In 2012, fans were freaked when they witnessed the hologram of late rapper Tupac "performing" at Coachella. Technology has come a long way since then and again in 2018 a tour was planned where the 27-year-old Grammy winner, Amy Winehouse was programmed to sing via the hologram after seven years of her death by accidental alcohol poisoning caused some major ire. Amy's image wasn't the only one as Musicians Roy Orbinson and Buddy Holly also got the hologram treatment.

And for the birthday gift to the famous reality star, it has to be different from singing to emotional speech and Kim definitely love the gesture of his husband. "I can't even describe what this meant to me and my sisters, my brother, my mom, and closest friends to experience together," she tweeted. "Thank you so much Kanye for this memory that will last a lifetime."
