‘Bro He Was Just Born Yesterday’: Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’Oir Celebrate Baby Ice’s First Birthday, and Fans Want to Know Where the Time Has Gone

Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’Oir celebrated their son Ice Davis’ first birthday with a “Cocomelon” themed bash, plenty of love, and a few icy gifts for the 1017 prince.

The youngest Davis, who was born Dec. 23, 2020, appeared to enjoy himself at his outdoor party and looked adorable in a Gucci shorts set while rocking his mini 1017 chain and blinged-out watch.

In photos and videos shared by both of his parents, the family was all smiles while surrounded by ornate “Cocomelon” themed decor, including personalized coloring books, decorated cookies and candy, and a three-tier cake that was probably taller than the birthday boy.

Fans who flooded social comments with birthday wishes for Ice seemed shocked to realize a year has already flown by since he was born.

“bro he was just born yesterday wtf ……”

“man this baby turned 1 so quick [weary face emoji]”

“I could’ve sworn this baby was born yesterday [unamused face emoji] noooo way he’s 1 already, she literally just had him lol”

Some social media users also called out Gucci Mane for appearing to favor one son over the other again, as he is also father to a teenage son, Keitheon.

“It must be something to pick and choose which kids you love…”

“He’s cute but Gucci still ain’t shyt”

“What about the other son?”

The rapper previously opened up about feeling like a first-time dad while raising Ice, even though he isn’t. “Me and the mother were kind of like strangers,” he told Billboard in May. “I never knew how much attention you got to pay to a baby. It’s not easy. It’s a great thing and I love it, but it’s definitely challenging to be a parent.”

Ka’Oir also has three teenage children that she told “The Breakfast Club” she keeps from the public eye because she “don’t need the kids in the limelight. I need them to go to school and just be children.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
