Check out these celeb fathers who have found a way to be successful in the music industry and have a big family at home.

Shawty Lo
There’s nothing low about Shawty who has 10 kids in total. The rapper was set to have a reality show called ‘All My Babies’ Mamas’ air on the Oxygen channel but the show was cancelled due to controversy surrounding its alleged stereotypical nature of African American families.

Jermaine Jackson
Forget the Jackson 5! Jermaine Jackson is starting a new group called the Jackson 8 or is that Jackson 9? Though we have lost count of how many kids this celebrity dad has, we do know he has enough kids to start a band of his own. Perhaps that was his plan all along?
El Debarge
El Debarge, who also comes from a famous musical family, has 12 kids in all! The singer admitted to fathering 12 kids in a 2010 Jet magazine interview. El, you may be last on our list, but you certainly don’t have the least kids!
