The Rapper’s Children

Nicki Minaj has one child with husband Kenneth Petty. Get to know the rapper’s son and family life.

Nicki Minaj is known for her chart-topping music and outspoken personality, but she’s also embraced a more private role as a mom. In recent years, Nicki has been candid about the realities of parenting, saying it requires constant learning and humility — and admitting there’s “no confidence in parenthood.” She’s described raising her son as both grounding and challenging.

“There’s a level of anxiety, and you think it’s going to go away, but, in fact, it gets scarier,” Nicki said in Vogue‘s December 2023 issue.
