'I'll lay them all out for you, keep me honest. There's 'Roc, 'Roe, Golden, Powerful, Rise, Onyx, Legendary, Zion, Zillion, Zen,' he said, before trailing off. 'See this is where … How many [are left?]'
In the spirit of keeping him honest, Cannon named Moroccan and Monroe, the twins he had with Mariah Carey; Golden Sagon, Powerful Queen and Rise Messiah with Brittany Bell; Onyx Ice Cole with LaNisha Cole; Legendary Love with Bre Tiesi; twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir with Abby De La Rosa; and the late Zen with Alyssa Scott.
The only two kids Cannon missed in his list were his two latest children: Beautiful Zeppelin, who he had with De La Rosa; and Halo Marie, who he had with Scott.
Elsewhere on the podcast, Cannon explained to Althoff why he has so many children, with the Drumline star saying that he has what he calls a 'king complex' when it comes to procreation. 'You know, Black men, we always be like, 'What's up king?' I really think I'm the king,' he said, before explaining to Althoff that kings of the past would have lots of children to 'enlarge their territory.'

Country star skewered by fans after calling out revered album: ‘It just ain't country'
Country music singer Gavin Adcock can't be convinced that Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter' is a country record. The musician criticized the highly acclaimed project during a live performance that was captured in a now viral video. 'There are only three people in front of me on the Apple music country charts, and one of them's Beyoncé,' Adcock said in the video that was posted to social media on Monday. 'You can tell her we're coming for her.' The singer went a step further by adding, 'that (expletive) ain't country music and it ain't ever been country music.' Adcock later clarified his comments in another video posted to his Instagram the same day with the caption, 'It just ain't country.' 'When I was a little kid, my momma was blasting some Beyoncé in the car. I've heard a ton of Beyoncé songs, and I actually remember her Super Bowl Halftime show being pretty kick ass back in the day,' Adcock said. 'But I really don't believe that her album should be labeled as country music. It doesn't sound country. It doesn't feel country,' he continued. 'I just don't think that people that have dedicated their whole lives to this genre and this lifestyle should have to compete or watch that album just stay at the top just because she's Beyoncé.' Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter' achieved major critical and commercial success. The album made Beyoncé the first Black woman to top Billboard's Top Country Albums Chart, and was also her eighth consecutive No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. In addition, Beyoncé became the first Black artist to win a Grammy Award for Best Country Album. 'Cowboy Carter' also took home the coveted Album of the Year award at the ceremony in February. Despite earning the most nominations (11) at the 2025 Grammy Awards, 'Cowboy Carter' did not receive any nominations at the 58th Annual Country Music Association Awards. This fueled speculations that the CMAs was against honoring Black musicians in the genre. 'There's a real culture of deference where you're supposed to bow down to the gatekeepers and fall in their good graces,' Amanda Marie Martinez, a postdoctoral fellow in the department of American studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, told NBC News last September. Beyoncé previously expressed not feeling welcomed by the country music community in an Instagram post promoting 'Cowboy Carter.' The 43-year-old said that experience drove her to dive deeper 'into the history of Country music.' She further defended 'Cowboy Carter' by writing 'This ain't a Country album. This is a 'Beyoncé' album.' Many fans sided with Beyoncé by showing their support for her on Adcock's Instagram post. "@gavinadcockmusic her album is not at the top just because she is Beyoncé. It's on the top because it's good," one comment reads. 'If you feel it's unfair to compete with her, work harder and make better music instead of blaming her for your failure.' 'It's so wild to me that we continue to have this conversation,' another Instagram user commented, citing the crossover successes of artists such as Post Malone, Machine Gun Kelly and Jelly Roll. '[They] have all genre jumped from what most would say is typical black music and they are not part of this same conversation,' the user wrote. 'I thought as an artist you grow and change and that can include the type of art you create. Why can they do it, but she's not country? This is coming from someone who isn't even a huge Beyoncé fan.' Other Instagram users jumped to Adcock's defense, leaving comments including, 'I couldn't agree more' and 'I like Beyonce BUT this is NOT country music.' One user wrote, 'Gavin speaks what we true country fans all think! He just has the balls to speak it.'

Lisa Matches Her Own Radio Record With Her Latest Collaboration
Lisa ties her personal best on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart as 'Priceless' with Maroon 5 ... More climbs to No. 24, matching her solo hit 'Moonlit Floor.' Lisa of BLACKPINK at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards held at UBS Arena on September 11, 2024 in in Elmont, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Billboard via Getty Images) For years, Lisa has been a certified pop powerhouse all around the world, first as one-fourth of Blackpink, and most recently on her own as a solo artist. She's proven several times that her appeal isn't limited to K-pop audiences, including with several hits on American pop radio. This week, Lisa manages to tie her own record on one of Billboard's pop airplay tallies. The singer sees her latest single, 'Priceless,' a collaboration with Maroon 5, match her own best showing on one list as it continues to slowly climb. 'Priceless' Rises to Lisa's Career High 'Priceless' advances to No. 24 on the Adult Contemporary chart this week. That's not only a new high for the track, but also the same peak position Lisa previously reached with her solo release 'Moonlit Floor.' The latter tune debuted on the ranking in March and slowly rose to No. 24 in late April, stalling in that spot. At the time, it marked an important moment for Lisa, who became one of the only K-pop soloists to appear on the ranking. The cut also benefits from Maroon 5's established popularity across radio stations in the U.S., and Lisa's name on the billing has undoubtedly drawn added attention from programmers, and the tune is surely being promoted heavily. Two Hits, One Chart Lisa currently sees two cuts sit near one another on the Adult Contemporary — a very rare feat for K-pop stars (Lisa is from Thailand, but started her career in K-pop, and is usually associated with the genre). While 'Priceless' moves up to No. 24, 'Moonlit Floor' holds at No. 27. 'Priceless' Climbs on Several Charts In addition to its growth on Adult Contemporary, 'Priceless' is also surging elsewhere. This week, the track pushes deeper into the top 10 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, where it now settles at No. 8 – one of the loftiest spaces any K-pop musician has ever reached. It also lifts ever so slightly on the all-style Radio Songs tally, inching north from No. 48 to No. 47. The cut is also a non-mover at No. 22 on the Pop Airplay roster, where it previously topped out at No. 18.

Tate McRae Tops Lady Gaga And Benson Boone At Pop Radio
Tate McRae lands her twelfth Pop Airplay hit as "Revolving Door" debuts, making her the only artist ... More this week with three tracks on the chart. BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 02: Tate McRae attends the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Radhika Jones at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on March 02, 2025 in Beverly Hills, California. (Photo by Cindy Ord/VF25/Getty Images for Vanity Fair) Getty Images for Vanity Fair Tate McRae has been working her way up to pop star status for years. She first scored hits on the Billboard charts several years back, but her most recent full-length So Close to What produced several of her biggest successes. A handful of recent collaborations have also propelled her further into the spotlight. This week, the Canadian pop singer scores a new win on one of Billboard's most competitive radio rankings. As her latest single debuts, she breaks out of a tie with several of the biggest stars in music, proving that her moment has truly arrived. McRae's single "Revolving Door" debuts on the Pop Airplay chart at No. 39. The tune comes in second-to-last place on the list of the most successful cuts at top 40 stations in the United States. Its arrival marks the singer-songwriter's twelfth appearance on the tally. Even though it begins in a very low position, "Revolving Door" is still a special win for McRae. This frame, she claims the most hits among all artists on the Pop Airplay chart. Several other acts fill two spaces, but McRae is the only one who claims three. Her solo cut "Sports Car" can be found at No. 15, while "What I Want," a collaboration with country powerhouse Morgan Wallen, isn't far behind, coming in at No. 19. Tate McRae Beats Lady Gaga, Benson Boone and SZA Four other artists claim two smashes each on the Pop Airplay roster this frame. That roundup includes Benson Boone, Lady Gaga, and Kendrick Lamar and SZA, who are featured on one another's tunes. Tate McRae's Multi-Genre Radio Success In addition to her success on the Pop Airplay chart, McRae can be found on the Adult Pop Airplay tally with several tracks. She also returns to the Country Airplay list this week alongside Wallen, where "What I Want" reenters at No. 60, in last place. While that tune has already dominated the Hot 100, it has yet to become a true win at country radio, as pop stations have adopted it much faster.
