His real full birth name is Jimmie Dale Herrod Jr. There are not many details about his parents but on August 01, 2020, this singer dedicated an emotional post to his father on the occasion of his birthday where he expressed his feelings by writing –

July 31st is my dad’s birthday and I really can’t express how lucky I am to have him in my life, and to know him for who he is, funny, intelligent, complicated like all of us, and caring.

I’ve been blessed to say he’s embraced me, not in just my gifts, or in being proud of what I’ve accomplished, but also in welcoming the people I love into his life without reservation.

The night before his birthday I was discussing exes with a friend (as one does hehe 😂) and had to hold back tears remembering when he called me, worried about the safety of my partner at the time, due to protests in his country.

It shook me that he could be so concerned about someone I loved, someone he himself had only met once. Every time I think about that, it shakes me. Deeply. I remember that I learn to love through the ways I see others display their love.

Happy birthday dad.

Thank you for the lessons.

I love you”.
