Rapper Boosie is expecting child number nine: ‘I’m about to be a daddy again’
Rapper Boosie announced he has another baby on the way. The Louisiana native, born Torence Ivy Hatch Jr., already has 8 children by 5 women.
The 41-year-old rapper shared a video of himself dancing enthusiastically during a recent Atlanta Hawks halftime show. He captioned the video, “BABY OTW DANCE. IM ABOUT TO BE A DADDY AGAIN.”
He didn’t reveal the baby’s mother. But some fans speculated the mother could be his fiancée Rajel Nelson. When his fans called Rajel a gold digger, she responded that she makes her own money and she doesn’t need his cash.
The announcement comes after Boosie’s daughter, Poison Ivi, revealed he banned her lesbian lover from his house. When Boosie appeared on an episode of Caresha Please, the rapper admitted that he doesn’t let Ivi’s girlfriend visit his home because he’s fearful that she will “contaminate” his other kids.
“He tells y’all that he don’t want my girlfriend around, but he don’t tell y’all that she be around,” Ivy told The Danza Project. “And when she around, he don’t never come around and say, ‘go take her home.’ He ain’t never once came to me and said that. Another thing is, if he woulda came to me and said, ‘you know I love you, I respect you, but I just don’t want you to bring your girlfriend to my house,’ I would’ve respected it. But, you don’t never say nothing, I didn’t know it was a problem until he went on Caresha Please.”
Boosie later apologized to his daughter.
