Big Sean is getting candid about what it was like for him to process the miscarriage he experienced with Jhené Aiko.
While the couple share a two-year-old son, Noah, they briefly opened up about losing a child before welcoming their rainbow baby. During the rapper’s recent appearance on On Purpose with Jay Shetty to discuss his debut book, Go Higher: Five Practices for Purpose, Success, and Inner Peace, Sean highlighted how he got through that traumatic event.
“Every situation is different,” he began. “So to someone who is experiencing miscarriages, and I can only speak from a man’s perspective— I can’t speak for a woman. Their perspective is the most traumatic, but I can say that, first of all, you’re worthy. I don’t want you to think you’re not worthy.”
The 36-year-old continued, “I don’t want people to think that because they have a miscarriage that they’re inadequate or that they’re broken. I think that this life is complex, and there are things we do and don’t understand, and I think there’s beauty in everything that’s meant for you.”
Sean encouraged listeners with a positive sentiment. “You may get blessed with a child later on. You may get blessed with a child that comes into your life a different way,” he shared. “Sometimes we get so set on a goal, we don’t keep the rest of our doors open, of how the universe could bless us in that way, to not only fill that void, but even make it even greater.”
He then urged others to “keep an open mind,” but if you’ve also dealt with “such an insufferable loss” then you should “go through it, express yourself, deal with that grief, [and not] let it consume you.”
Sean concluded by noting, “Sometimes you got to go through it just to get to it.”
He first made mention of the miscarriage on 2020’s “Deep Reverence” as he rapped, “Probably why this s**t with me get crazy and we lost a baby.”
His book, which includes a foreword penned by Shetty, is available for purchase.
