In his Mother's Day message, Uncle Luke discussed his experiences with paying child support and feeling estranged from his children. Through an Instagram Live session, he expressed frustration over having spent millions of dollars on child support for his five kids, without factoring in legal expenses. Uncle Luke indicated that he feels disconnected from his children, attributing this to the influence of their mothers who, in his view, have turned them against him. Despite his significant financial contributions, he emphasized that his children do not acknowledge him on Father's Day, something that he finds hurtful. Uncle Luke reflected on the challenges of his situation, acknowledging the resentment he faces from his children and even suggesting that they change their last name if they dislike him so much. This familial dynamic has had legal implications, as Uncle Luke was reportedly arrested in 2019 for falling behind on child support payments exceeding $10,000. Despite these personal struggles, Uncle Luke's impact on Miami's music scene remains noteworthy, as evidenced by the recent renaming of a city street in Liberty City to honor his contributions to hip-hop and the Southern music genre. Luke, a native of Miami, is celebrated for his role in shaping Southern hip-hop's distinctive sound and for his legal battles advocating for artistic expression.
