Iggy Azalea reveals Playboi Carti is a deadbeat dad to son Onyx: “I'm very much the only parent”

Azalea also said becoming a mother and having a son made her want to slow down and focus on being more present.

Iggy Azalea is handling parenting her son all on her own.

During an appearance on Sony Music Entertainment’s Dinner's On Me podcast, hosted by Jesse Tyler Ferguson, rapper Iggy Azalea, 34, discussed her relationship with her son Onyx, whom she welcomed in 2020 and shares with her ex, Playboi Carti.

"I'm very much a single mother. I'm very much the only parent, no disrespect, but yes, I am not co-parenting really, and that's just the reality of it," she shared. "It's one, it's 24/7."

Later in the podcast, Azalea mentioned that becoming a mother and having her son made her want to slow down and focus on being more present.

"I no longer want to be traveling around everywhere. I want to take my son to school. I want him to have memories with me and give him that time," she revealed. "It's really important to me."

"I owe my success in large part to my mother because she spent so much time with me and she just really gassed me up and made me think I was a superwoman genius, dancer extraordinaire, painter extraordinaire, chef, whatever it was. And it's important to me, even when my son's only 4, that I know I'm there, instilling that confidence in him and just helping guide him."

"It's my job as a parent. I think if you're going to have a child, you should be prepared to do that and engage in that way. And I really want to. I toured two years with my son on a bus and it was time for that to end," the rapper explained.
