“I was trying to find myself,” he said. “I didn’t have much of a clue as to what it meant to be a father. I definitely made some mistakes but I have no regrets.”
The Grammy-nominated artist said he’s struggled to balance parenthood with work commitments: “It’s challenging when you have a career like this and you’re always on the go.”
“It makes it difficult to see your children, especially when they are young,” he said. “Now that I’m older, I’m learning my way.”
