Posted by Los Angeles rapper Blueface and his girlfriend, Nevaeh Akira, have officially welcomed their first child together. The couple celebrated the arrival of their newborn son, Johnathan Jamall Porter Jr., on Tuesday night, August 18, following a lengthy labor process.
The couple had been stationed at the hospital since the previous evening. Blueface shared the moment with his followers on a livestream, revealing that he received the call regarding Nevaeh’s labor while he was actively broadcasting. He was seen rushing to the hospital to be by her side, famously telling his viewers, “Chat, we may be having a baby.”
The journey to the hospital was documented in real-time, with the rapper streaming his commute on Kick. In a characteristic display of his public persona, Blueface played a playlist featuring songs with the word “push” in the title, such as OT Genasis’ 2016 hit “Push It” and the Salt-N-Pepa classic of the same name, much to the visible annoyance of Nevaeh in the backseat. The rapper’s manager, Wack 100, was also present at the hospital to witness the birth.
The pregnancy has been a highly publicized affair, marked by various controversies that played out on social media. Earlier this year, Nevaeh learned of another woman’s pregnancy via a leaked voicemail that was streamed live. Despite public arguments and the rapper’s admitted infidelity with Chrisean Rock, Nevaeh has remained steadfast in the relationship. Addressing the situation, Blueface recently remarked, “You had your time. Your time is up. It’s Neveah’s turn. Sorry you can’t find love.”
This newborn marks the second child for Nevaeh, who has a son from a previous relationship. For Blueface, this is his fourth child; he shares a son and daughter with Jaidyn Alexis, as well as a son with Chrisean Rock.
