BET Awards 2026: Bow Wow Shares Proudest Dad Moment to Kids Shai, Stone

And since Bow Wow grew up in the spotlight, he has strong words of advice for his children, as his daughter is already following in his footsteps. After all, the Like Mike star’s daughter kicked off her acting career in 2021.

“If they want to do it, I would tell them, ‘Just take it easy, don’t trust nobody,'” Bow Wow explained. “It’s gonna be easy for them, because they got me and I’ve done it, so they got kind of like a cheat code. Just be prepared for the peer pressure, the things that come with the game. You’re gonna have people that’s gonna lure you in and try to do different things here and there, and people that’s gonna try to rip you off. It’s a lot of snakes in this business, and just look out for those negative things.”

But the Let Me Hold You artist emphasized that he’ll be there to help his kids navigate the industry.

“That’s what I’m here for: to protect them, guide ’em, and shield ’em from that,” he said, “so those things won’t happen.”
