| Bow Wow with Daughter |
Bow Wow has written a letter to his fans speaking about the birth of his daughter. He has a large fan base, and I guess he felt a need to explain to his fans exactly what his current situation was. I like Bow Wow as a celebrity. I will listen to his music, but when I listen I don't expect to hear much lyrically. I'm really writing this because I found the letter to be interesting. We often think that people who become stars at a young age have it easy, but it can be a gift and a curse. The prime example of this case is Michael Jackson. He never really got to experience a childhood, therefore he made questionable decisions when he was older. These young stars grow up faster than they are supposed to and many have a lot of problems when they actually become adults.
Here is the actual letter (the typos are his lol):
Let me start off by saying i love my fans. With out yall i wudda been left the game. For the past 3 years i been batteling life. Even thought about taking my own. I felt like as a kid i did everything and saw everything too fast which spoiled my adult years. I felt as if i had no purpose to live(Thinking selfishly) until god gave me the illest gift of my life. No lambo, no blk card nuffn ammounts to my lil girl. I waited so long to tell yall the truth because i was nervous on how yall would look at me. Yall know everyone makes a big deal out of everything i do. I wanted to be 1st n let yall know the real. My lil girl is getting BIG fast. i love every minute of it. She inspires me to go harder.Even made me treat my mother better, its like it made me into a man over night. Never been a fan of posting pix of my daughter. Reason is because i want my boo boo to have everything i didnt. Want her to be able to cheerlead with her lil friends with out some ###hole sticking his camera all in my lil girl face. I know how fame is. I missed out on so much that i now know how important it is to cherish and have those things in your life. Yes! I change diapers. Aint as bad as i thought hahaha. I want her to live with me so bad. Jus us 2. Thats my dream man but fellas yall know how it go. Baby gotta stay with they momma and all dat bull. I hate that! So i have to fly 5 hrs away to see her. I find myself going into my i phone book jus lookn at pix of her. Sometimes i tear up cuz i just cant believe it brotha be emotional. All in all im good. This is my 1st. I know all my fans gone support me and ride for her like yall been doin my whole career. To the ones that say “Im heart broken how can he do that to us” well i do have a life thats not all about movies or making albums. Im 24 now. I cant wait 4eva. Im happy and if your a fan then ud be happy too cuz yall gone be with me every step of the way. The bs that comes with having a baby momma is expected. So i neva trip. Jus gotta suck it up keep chin high and try not let her get the best of my feelings by playin them stupid games. Ima stay positive and keep maintaining long as i got yall i cant lose. I love yall. And shai shai daddy love u too! Wizzle!!!!

Hahaha I hear you. I was really talking about the suicide part. It's not as easy on childhood stars as we think. Thanks for your feedback!
It was hard getting through this. He didnt have anyone in his camp who could proofread? Geesh.
I do think that fanous people (young and old alike) have it hard. We often forget that they ARE just as human as we are and bleed just as we do. But with that being said, I'm intestered in knowing what kind of baby momma drama he's dealing with.
*famous
I probably should start proofreading. LOL
I can understand the ideology of the "child actor" don't get me wrong but Who cares about the woes of the rich. "I couldn't go outside to hop in my Lambo" PLEEEASE. There are people that have real problems like, they are Poor! They say more money more problems, but how about no money more problems.
But the problem isn't Bow Wow, its the lack of Dads, not fathers but Dads. The answer to that problem goes way beyond the scope of this Blog. Its not a burden when he spends the money.
Every Job has its downs, I may not like working at my job but never at any age did I feel like taking my life..
Hahaha . I def agree w/ Kellz that was difficult to read indeed. I understand that famous ppl are human and they are not immune to life's trials. Glad that he found God and will survive through it all . But really though Bow you learned how to treat your moms better Hmm life must have really been kicking you when you treat moms bad . I'm just glad things are better. Perhaps now you can learn to write so you can teach your "boo boo" when she grows up. lol
On a more serious note... As far as him feeling suicidal; that doesn't surprise me because that lifestyle can be a lonely one. Gotta turn folks away, not knowing who genuinely cares!! Every adversity is magnified cuz being so privileged so young probably stifled his coping ability. I can totally relate to the child changing him over night. That's the best thing for him. It will slow things down for him.

It must be tough to grow up in that celebrity environment without proper education--the letter speaks for itself. I'm not one to question another's faith, but to talk of God and then continue later on in the letter to attack the mother in a passive-aggressive manner doesn't bode well for the future; hope he can work that out. My question is why can't he at least move closer to where his child is? Also, what's going on with him that he can't fight for custody whether full or partial? There is a lot left unsaid in this than there is said. Either way it's sad when someone comes to the point of feeling like they'd rather be dead, but to recognize a blessing through the life of your newborn child is an amazing chance to turn around your life. Wish him the best.
I know being a celebrity can be tough, but it is no excuse to want to take your own life. God makes those decisions. I'm glad he is treating his mother "better," but that should have never been an issue. Hopefully his child is truly a blessing for him!
You don't have to be a celebrity to not have a regular 9 to 5 job that allow them to see their children/family everyday. So he's not the only one who have to make sacrifices like 5 hour trips to see his baby girl. Although I agree that its tough and sucks but that's how it goes.
On top of that he talk about being in the game young and seeing things before adulthood. Why didn't he know that it would be hard to take care of a baby with the job he does? Oh wait.... the had to learn this but decided to have a baby anyway.
Anyway...best of luck to him.
This was hard to read like many other have said, due to the many grammatical errors. I don’t understand why he felt his fans would have looked at him differently, he is human! That is one of the problems with being in the media.
I do love the fact that he expresses his love and sincerity for his daughter. And while I can understand he wants to see his daughter and spend time with her, I hate the comment “Baby gotta stay with they momma and all dat bull.” I’m sure it’s not bull unless there is baby momma drama which comes along with the blessing of having a kid, something he should have thought about and many others need to remember. Flying 5 hours is just a minor thing when it comes to seeing his little girl.
Hopefully Bow Wow and the mother can work something out an agreement on the living arrangement for the betterment of his little girl. I wish him well with his new family and raising a little girl.
Thansk dsl! I saw a new side to bow wow. And years ago, I remember him going to clubs w Jermaine D and Snoop. I knew from then the poor boy was going to be all messed up. It seems like his daughter will help him find himself - Zuki
