Logic says he wants to teach his father about "Black Ownership."

During a recent stop on his College Park tour, Logic shared a sweet moment with his dad onstage. He vowed to protect the 69-year-old by signing him to his label, Bobby Boy Records. Logic has been open about his relationship with his father, which has been problematic in the past. It seems as though now, the rapper is really committing to changing it for the better.

Onstage, Logic reflects on asking his dad “Why do you always ask me for money?” The rapper shares that his father's response was "I don’t know." He recalls his father saying, "I think it’s just the fact that I’m financially insecure because I want to leave a legacy for your little brother." Logic says he told the 69-year-old "You know what dad, I’m gonna do an album with you. I’m going to teach you about Black ownership and what it means to run a business.”

Logic Wants To Teach His Dad About "Black Ownership"

“Dad I want to make sure that you’re safe,” Logic told his father onstage, “And we make this album, that you are protected, and you have the greatest lawyers in the f***ing business, and I want to sign my father at 69-years-old to Bobby Boy Records right now. And give him what he always wanted.” His father goes on to say, “I love this boy," adding, “I knew he was going to be a star… when he came out of my balls, n***a!”

Last month, Logic reflected on his dad asking him for $1 million during his appearance on the Whiskey Ginger with Andrew Santino podcast. The rapper recalls his father telling him, “I want a million dollars for my band so we can buy a house and make music in it.” He claims to have turned down his dad's request, telling him, “Please don’t ask me for money– can we just like throw Fu***ing catch or some Sh*t?”
