Rapper Kreayshawn Is Pregnant

May 7, 2013 by Lindsay Cronin

Kreayshawn is known for her hardcore raps about drinking, drugs, and violence, but in just a few months, she’ll be a mommy.

Days ago, the 23-year-old rapper took to social media where she revealed that she is five-months-pregnant with her first child.

“Everyone’s been wondering why all my pics have been neck up. WELL here’s a neck down one! I’M GONNA BE A MOM! (I’m pregnant),” Kreayshawn announced on Instagram on May 5. Along with the message was a special photo of her growing baby belly — and some added graphics. That same day, she told Twitter fans, “Motherhood is bout to be my new hood! LOL!!”

Kreayshawn, who grew up in a rough part of Oakland, California, didn’t exactly have the easiest childhood and previously opened up to the press about her struggles. ”I wasn’t born in no corn-fed house with a mom and dad and my family and sh*t like that. That wasn’t it,” Kreayshawn revealed to HipHopDx during a 2011 interview, adding that her father was never a part of her life. “Me and him don’t even have a relationship. I don’t have his phone number. I don’t know where he lives.”

Despite her tough childhood, Kreayshawn isn’t bitter. “I feel like the way I grew up, like sometimes it makes me mad but then again it’s made me who I am,” she admits. “I’m never angry. I’m never overly sad about it. S**t, I like the way I grew up. That’s me.”

Kreayshawn has been linked to everyone from Drake to 2 Chainz to Da Brat (Kreayshawn was rumored to be a “raging lesbian” at one point), but the identity of her child’s father has yet to be announced.

Back in January, Kreayshawn shocked fans when she announced that she was cleaning up her act. ”I’m going straight edge guys,” she revealed. “No alcohol or weed or cigs or drugs ever again! I’m gonna #win!” At the time, no one knew why, but now, it seems as though she did it to ensure a healthy pregnancy.

Congratulations to Kreayshawn and the mystery daddy!
