Follow me on:

So, you thought I was kidding when I said I haven't heard that many 'dad appreciation' rap songs? Well, I've been searching and scraping for the fatherhood equivalent of these Mother's Day songs to no avail. If you know of any, please hit me up. Meanwhile, enjoy these 5 poignant father-to-child hip-hop tunes. Happy Father's Day.
