COOLIO’S DAUGHTERS ARE PROTECTIVE OF HIM

Rapper Coolio and daughters Jackie(L)and Artisha(R)

Rapper Coolio’s daughters Jackie,Brandi,and Artisha are protective of their dad. Jackie,a High-Schooler, and Brandi and Artisha who are in community colleges, say that their dad needs a good woman. “He doesn’t know what he needs,”  offered Brandi about her father’s choices of women. “He definitely knows what he wants.He’ll like somebody because their boobs are big or something, and we’re like, ‘She’s dumb!’”

Although it may seem that Coolio’s children are good at putting their father in his place,Coolio reveals that he disciplines his kids,especially when it comes to money. The rapper says that he does not give his kids credit cards because then” [my kids and I would] be living downtown in a cardboard box. I give them cash. Sometimes I take them shopping. Most often not. I’m not cheap, but I’m thrifty. Right after my divorce, I went through a period where it got kind of rough, bro. I was having money problems. Imagine having money and then not having money and being one of the most recognized celebrity rappers in the world and not having money, man; it was rough. It was rough, bro.”
Coolio and his four children(he has six in all) will be starring in their new Oxygen reality series, “Coolio’s Rules”,which premieres in October.
