Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) surprised his daughter Casie with a present she has been dreaming of for years.
The rapper, whose real name is Colson Baker, got the now 16-year-old a black Acura, topped with a giant red bow.
Casie, whom Kelly shares with ex-girlfriend Emma Cannon, was over the moon and filled with so much excitement as she hugged her father after seeing the car.
The “Vampire Diaries” hitmaker immediately reminded her of the “number one rule” before she started driving. Casie didn’t hesitate to respond, telling him, “Don’t drive like your dad.”
While the gift was warmly received, Casie admitted she could not take it on the road just yet. She still needs to earn her driver’s license, something her father can relate to.
“Now all I gotta do is get my license,” she said.
Kelly also joked about how there appears to be a family struggle with passing driving tests.
“It runs in the family, dude, we can’t get a license to save our lives,” he laughed.
The rapper also admitted he was puzzled by his daughter’s choice of dream car, but decided to honour it nonetheless.
“I don’t know why this is her dream car,” he said in the video. “But it’s her dream car and it’s crazy.”
The vehicle’s red interior caught his attention, and while he may not understand her preference, he seemed proud to have made it happen.
According to “E! News”, Casie’s gift arrives as she reaches other milestones, including starting her first job as an ice cream scooper.
Kelly revealed that his advice for her new role was to keep things simple and focus on giving customers what they want.
The heart-warming moment has been circulating online, but it has also sparked conversations among social media users who were surprised to learn that the artist has a biracial daughter.
“This being how I found out MGK had a biracial daughter at 19😭you learn something new every day,” said X user @Szamaximoff.
Another user @Mrhundiddy said: “Today years old when I found out MGK has a black daughter 😂.”
Casie is Kelly’s only child with Cannon, who is known for keeping her life entirely private. The two are said to have dated during their teenage years in Cleveland, and despite parting ways, they have continued to co-parent without any public drama.
Cannon keeps a very low profile and avoids the spotlight. She’s not on any public social media platform, but has remained very involved in her daughter’s life, with the rapper calling her the “best mother” he has seen.
It’s reported that she may have been in her late teens when Casie was born, as Kelly was 18 at the time.
