Bow Wow Reflects on Missing Out on Life's Simple Pleasures

The rapper opened about missing out on going to the prom and college because of childhood fame.

For many, Bow Wow has lived the life they want to. And while that may be the case for him as well, he still wishes he could experience many of life’s early rights of passage.

The Columbus, Ohio rapper took to his Instagram Story on Wednesday (September 13) to reflect on how he missed the simple things growing up, like prom and attending college.

While Bow Wow may not have been able to experience certain things, he hasn’t missed out on being a father. In an IG post last Sunday, he can be seen holding his son as they watched the Atlanta Falcons take on the Carolina Panthers at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The Falcons ended up winning 24-10.
