The whole #girldad thing is a new trend that has been spreading online ever since Kobe Bryant, who was a father of four daughters, passed away in a tragic helicopter accident.
In the aftermath of the tragedy, many fathers of girls went on to express the same pride the NBA legend used to.
As for the adventure he was talking about, Safaree was referencing the fact that he had to cancel a Rhode Island gig last minute upon finding out his daughter was about to be born.
‘Sorry to everyone who came out to see me in Rhode Island last night, as I was getting ready to leave my wife’s water broke,’ he shared on Instagram Stories not too long after actually announcing the infant had been born.
The two first announced they were pregnant on October 1 via a video during which the rapper said: ‘Wow, wow, it’s a big deal! Very big deal. I did not know I was capable of doing this. I’m excited! I’m nervous. I’m in shock. I’m in disbelief. It’s very surreal to me. I don’t know what to do but I know I’m going to be great at what I do, because I’m great at everything.’
