      I've heard he was actually a deadbeat dad to his son (wasn't involved in his life), with Shari Headley (Lisa from Coming to America). And didn't pay child support. So, let's not over praise these people, they're regular people who just happen to be famous. Hopefully he's changed.

      ​@@domkennedy4452 I heard it from an interview with Shari herself (who had to raise the kid on her own) without help, as a struggling actress. And the child support case is available easily by searching online. But, you're right... You just won TH-cam, i'll leave the thread you paid to open and butt-kiss another man, who 100% won't ever mention your name in his life. Congratulate yourself.

    Man, Christopher is such a real Brother, and what an inspiring interview! I remember those rough times growing up on the East Coast in the 1980's when things were hectic. I was lucky to get out to forge a decent, quiet life; but so many good Brothers lost their lives to the streets being caught up in the game of survival. I'm glad we can listen to stories such as these of the Brothers and Sisters who survived and are still successful to this day. Thank you for the valuable content.

    I'm quite shocked how refreshing and how much a revelation Play is and has been. His broader conxtextualization, maturity and humility is welcome necessity in hip hop and the entertainment industry.

    I'm 52, grew up in the advent of rap. Hip Hop was much more cultural, it was the graffiti art, clothing shell toe Adidas sneakers, gaberdine pants, break dancing, MC's, DJ'ing, 'turntabalism' cutting and scratching, mixing, local rappers rocking the mic. We had parties every weekend at clubs or house parties etc..
    Nowadays, the kids today are way too violent to have events as big rap concerts or house parties. The DJ turntabalism went commercial. So you don' t hear of any kids aspiring to be DJ's as compared to rappers. And Play is right, your whole level was measured by how well you did with the ladies.

    This is so inspirational the way he turned his life around. And the way that he recognized that he needed to be better. It's a beautiful thing. He wasn't going to take no for an answer.
    It's clear that he put in the work and dedicated himself to being eloquent and educated.

    Kid N Play will forever be a legendary hip hop group and this man lived a unbelievable life with his father doing crimes and him coming right behind him but he changed his life and became a legend. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017

    Ahhh...growing up in the Bronx in the 70's and keeping your oven door open all night in order to heat up the house. In the summer, we had no a/c so we'd stand in front of the fan and sing. I remember getting in our Ford Granada (also no a/c and man, it was like getting third degree burns when you had your shorts on getting in that long azz car. Your only relief was when the ice cream man came down your street around 7:30pm. Yes, I had my iron pressed Lee jeans with my name plate belt buckle, my Le'Tigre polo shirt and my skinny leather tie....I really thought I was fly!!
