Daddy's Little Girls: These Famous #GirlDads Are Raising Rap Royalty

Rappers are known for their hit songs, which are often masked in harsh lyrics that detail their lives or the challenges of being in the industry, it's no wonder that many hip-hop artists can often come off as jaded and rough around the edges.

Despite this, the MCs below have a softer side thanks to their daughters. Here are some of our favorite rappers who take the title of girl dad very seriously.

Beyond his iconic career and famous business acumen, Jay-Z is known for his commitment to fatherhood, as evidenced by his doting relationship with his children.

The father of three has two daughters and a son — Blue Ivy, Rumi, and Sir Carter. He has also vividly referenced fatherhood in several of his records, including "Life Is a Beach" and "Legacy."

In a conversation with Gayle King, Jay talked about his first-born daughter and how proud he is of her growth.

"She’s been born into a life she didn’t ask for," he said.

"So since she was born, she’s been in scrutiny and the public eye and everyone having an opinion of even a little girl, how she keeps her hair," he added.

"So for her to be on that stage and reclaim her power, and the song is called ‘My Power,’ you can’t write a better script."

T.I., the self-proclaimed "King of the South," is not just known for his impeccable vocabulary but also for his role as a quintessential family man.
