- O'Shea Jackson Jr. sees his "nepo baby" status as a badge of honor, and does not shy away from it.

- He believes it would be disrespectful not to accept and appreciate the opportunities that his father worked hard to give him.
- Jackson credits his father's hard work with getting him where he is today, and chooses to wear his "nepo baby" status proudly.
- He said, "A lot of people, when they see me, naturally, 'Hey, you're Ice Cube's son.' You're damn right I am, 100%, that's my hero. That's my coach."
- He added, "At the same time, the door can be open but you gotta walk through."
