Ludacris is a proud father of four beautiful daughters — Karma, Cai, Cadence, and Chance.
The rapper “never could have predicted” that he would become the ultimate girl-dad, being the proud father of four beautiful daughters.
Ludacris is the father of two girls, Chance, 1, and Cadence, 7, whom he shares with his wife Eudoxie Bridges. The actor also has daughters Cai, 9, and Karma, 21, from former relationships.
“I think that it’s been best for me because it has rounded me out as a person. And I’m kind of like the soft dad that all the girls got me wrapped around their fingers. So I think it’s just balanced me out,” the 45-year-old told us.

Since becoming a father, Ludacris revealed to us that his kids have taught him the art of patience.
“I’ll be honest with you, man, patience is extremely important because you know, when you first before you become a parent, I feel like a lot of people, they only have a certain amount of patience,” he said. “But when you have a kid, you have no choice but to like live more in the moment and the present. So that’s what they’ve taught me.”

Living in the moment also means focusing on family time.
Ludacris makes it a priority to balance work and family time and recently collaborated with Rice Krispies Treats to bring a spin to family game night with Treat, Eat, Compete — a limited-edition game kit.

“I’ve been eating Rice Krispies my entire life and my kids eat them,” he told us. “And you know, there [are] so many distractions going on in the household of every place around the world nowadays, we just want to bring people together and even gamify, snack time and dinner time, or dessert time, and try and do something fun where the whole family can be involved.”
Ludacris’s daughter Karma is also in the entertainment industry.
Following in his footsteps, Ludacris’s daughter Karma, 21, is an aspiring actress. We couldn’t help but ask the rapper what advice he gave his baby girl about navigating the entertainment industry.

“I think I just tried to teach her so many lessons, like having great morals and principles and standards about herself, that she lives by,” he said. “And, you know, discipline is extremely important. And making sacrifices for what you want. You have to sacrifice one thing in order to get another.”
