FABOLOUS AND EMILY B’S SON, JOHAN, TURNS 17
Johan Jackson, the son of rapper Fabolous and longtime partner Emily Bustamante, just celebrated a major milestone—his 17th birthday! The proud parents took to Instagram to share sweet tributes to their son, marking the special occasion with love and gratitude.
Emily B posted a touching message, writing, “17 years of love, laughter and watching you grow into an incredible young man.. Happy Birthday Johan! I love you son ♥️ @iamprincejoso.”
Rapper Fabolous also shared a message reflecting on the joy of fatherhood. “HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHAN 🎈 2•16•08. 17 Years of Life & it has been amazing to be your Dad & watch you grow into yourself.. More Life & More Blessings.. I Love You.”
The celebrations didn’t stop at social media tributes. Fabolous and Johan spent the special day taking in the excitement of NBA All-Star Weekend.
The 2025 NBA All-Star Championship, held on February 16, was an all-star single-elimination basketball tournament, and the father-son duo soaked in every moment of the star-studded event.
Johan also enjoyed a celebratory All-Star brunch, making his birthday weekend even more memorable.
Fabolous, who shares three children with Emily B, has always made it clear that his relationship with Johan holds a special place in his heart. His deep love and aspirations for his son were even woven into his music.
Back in 2019, the Brooklyn-born rapper penned a touching verse about raising Johan to be a king. The lyrics showcased his desire to guide his son through life’s challenges while instilling wisdom and resilience:
“My son gon’ be a king, I tell him every morning / I put my chain on his neck, right now it’s heavy on him / One day it’ll all be his, so I’m forever on him…”
Fabolous and Emily B share three children together—Johan, Jonas, and Journey Isabella. Emily is also mom to daughter Taina Williams from a previous relationship.
