Despite having 11 children, NBA YoungBoy recently admitted that he's "not really big" on fatherhood.

During his recent appearance on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, NBA YoungBoy was praised for being a "great father," but surprisingly, he pushed back. According to him, it's not exactly his thing, despite having 11 kids at only 24 years old. "I'm not really big on it to be honest," he told Bootleg Kev. "This is a cr*zy topic because I'm not the type to sugarcoat nothing, but I'm four walls every day."

For obvious reasons, the rapper's admission managed to ruffle some feathers, with countless viewers calling him out for appearing to downplay the huge responsibility. His comments even earned him Charlamagne Tha God's "Donkey of the Day" title, with the Breakfast Club host putting him on blast for seemingly failing to "give an F."

Charlamagne Tha God Calls NBA YoungBoy's Admission A "Teachable Moment"

"Donkey of the Day is all about giving people the credit they deserve for being st*pid, but it's also about using things like this as a teachable moment," Charlamagne began. "I didn't know I would have to say this, but my brothers, that is wack. Alright? So many of us come from broken homes, so many of us had fathers or mothers that weren't 'big' on having kids. But what bothers me about statements like this is NBA YoungBoy talks that gangster talk in his records. Not only does he talk that gangster talk, he talks that big money talk. Well in the words of Jay-Z, a man that don't take care of his family can't be rich, so don't talk money talk to me if you not 'big' on fatherhood."

What do you think of NBA YoungBoy claiming that he's "not really big" on fatherhood during his Bootleg Kev interview? What about Charlamagne Tha God naming him his "donkey of the day" for his admission? Does he deserve it?
