The rapper, who’s received praise for his latest unplanned gift to his 9-year-old, opened up in the past about how important co-parenting is with the mothers — model Olivia Sky and dancer Joie Chavis — of his two children and the lessons he’s learned from Diddy.

During an interview with The Shade Room, the father of two said, “My Kids’ moms — you see I don’t even like to say baby mama or baby mother —my children’s moms, they can call me for anything. Imma get it done. If they out of town, if they in Miami, they need something, they wanna go out, no matter what it is. If it’s a function going on, they need to get in with they girls, Imma set it up. Sections done, bang, there it is. We family. I think that’s important.”

He added, “And I got that from Puffy, I learned a lot from Puff. He taught me a lot, being around him, watching how he moves, and I’m always asking him questions like ‘How do you do it? How, how?’ And it’s a blessing, and it works well when it’s like that, so it’s family, it’s a family affair. Like I said, I love them both, and I’m just happy I’ve got two good ones on my side. I’m done after this. No more for Bow.” 

Bow Wow welcomed Stone Moss with Sky on September 2020 and welcomed Shai with Chavis in 2011.
