American singer, rapper, and entrepreneur Kevin Gates is a proud father to Khaza Kamil Gates, his second child with his wife. Although Khaza Kamil Gates stays away from the spotlight, his father sometimes talks about him during interviews.

Known for his songs "Really Really," "Phones," and "Big Gangsta," Kevin Gates made a name for himself in the music scene. His family, including his second child, Khaza Kamil Gates, brings him immense joy and pride despite his critical acclaim as a rapper.

Born on May 9, 2014, Khaza Kamil Gates is the rapper's son with his wife, Dreka Haynes. He was born in their home through a water birth, with no medication or complications.

Khaza's mother took to Instagram to announce his birth and shared her methods with fans. In the post announcing his birth, she wrote:

"May 9th 2014, I birthed this little guy at home via water birth (using the aquadoula birthing tub [...] I've been blessed, mashallah, to have 2 really easy pregnancies and births."

Dreka further revealed they had a plant-based lifestyle and kept the chemicals out of their home by using all-natural products for everything, including skincare and cleaning products.

Kevin Gates & Wife Did Not Have Their Son Vaccinated

Wanting to keep things natural, the couple, who has been together for several years, refused medical attention. After Dreka did her research and experienced a near-death experience at the hands of doctors, she did not want to have their children's lives in someone else's hands. She said:

"If you breastfeed your kids, that's actually where they're supposed to get their first vaccinations from [...] My kids have been out of the country, and they haven't had any vaccinations, and they haven't had all problems."

Dreka claimed they had healthy children who have not had problems despite leaving the country. She remarked that they might get allergies or colds from the weather but nothing more.

Khaza Kamil Gates Is Not an Only Child

Khaza Kamil Gates is the youngest of two children. On November 30, 2012, Kevin and Dreka welcomed their firstborn, Islah Koren Gates. Like Khaza, Islah is also her father's happiness. The talented singer even dedicated a major-label debut to her, naming the album "Islah." Islah in Arabic means "to make better."

Years later, Kevin released an album named after his son, Khaza, which became controversial for its gruesome lyrics. Khaza, in Arabic, means "treasure." According to the rapper, his son learns through entertainment, and so it was through words that he taught his Khaza many things. Khaza and Islah have motivated their father to work hard because he wants to provide well for his family.

Kevin Gates Has a Good Relationship with His Kids

Kevin Gates once revealed that he cared for many children who were not his biological kids. "I got a big heart," he said. However, he doesn't allow his partners to manipulate him through the children.

During an interview, he said he had two children born two weeks apart with two different women. Although it wasn't ideal, his partners still loved him and raised the kids with him.

Like Kevin, many rappers are already fathers to children they adore. Among them is Kylie Jenner's ex-boyfriend, Tyga, who is a dad to King Cairo. Tyga shares his only child with another celebrity, Blac Chyna.

Although no longer a couple, Tyga and Chyna try to navigate through life amicably for their son. Tyga enjoys parenthood and sees his son as the most important person and top priority.
