The dancehall star initially listed his children as Majesty and Leandra before adding, almost in passing,

"Then I have a son in London."

When Serwaa Amihere pressed him for the child's name, he confirmed it as Jedidiah. He placed the boy's age somewhere between six and eight, though he appeared momentarily unsure of the exact figure.
