New York rapper and Dip Set ambassador Juelz Santana is a proud father of two young boys and one on the way. A self-proclaimed “hands on father,” Juelz knows a thing or two about being there for his family and taking care of his little ones – that’s why he’s so bothered by the fact that fathers don’t get the recognition they deserve – especially on Father’s Day.

“I guess it’s because of the history of fathers that have been deadbeat dads, especially in the era that I was growing up in,” said Juelz Santana.
