Wayne has been very vocal lately about wanting to devote more time to his children. In fact, he’s considering retiring from the music industry soon to focus on being a father. During his recent interview with GQ, he opened up about his reasons for wanting to turn his back from his career.

“Basically, I have been doing this for eighteen years. That’s reason number one. I have accomplished all that I have set out to accomplish and more. But the main reason is my kids, my children. Now, if I thought I’d be selfish to my artists, imagine what I think I would be doing to my kids.I have enough money that they don’t have to ever do anything—which, they will do everything, ’cause they ain’t getting Shyte.”

According to Wayne, he’s giving himself six more years before seriously considering retirement and making his life all about his children.

“Six more years, I can do this Lil Wayne thing, and my boys will be about 7 and 8 years old. And man, it’s all about them then. You know, whatever they’re doing. Sports. Whatever they’re into. That’s where I am. I’m at every game. I’m the dad with the hat on. The jersey. That’s me.”

Wayne is currently a father to four children with four different women. His eldest, 19-year-old Reginae is the daughter of his ex-wife, Antonia Wright. After Dwayne III, he fathered 9-year-old Cameron Carter with actress Lauren London. Neal Carter was born just two months after Cameron was born. His mother is R&B singer Nivea. Wayne is reportedly expected to welcome his fifth child at the end of this year with his current girlfriend Dhea Sodano.

Skylar was previously linked to Wayne who publicly admired her by showing up in her games and wearing her basketball jersey. The rapper had competition though. Drake was also rumored to be crushing on the sports star. He even read poetry to her apart from posting a photo of him wearing her jersey.
