Lil Pump is an extremely private person, who seems to be vulnerable and so closed. He didn’t publicize the name of his father, but in his joint interview with another popular rapper J. Cole, he opened up that was raised by a stepdad, with whom he had contentious relationship.
It seems that his biological father is estranged from him. It’s just known, that the man comes from Colombia. He immigrated to United States a little prior to Lil Pump’s birth.
Mother
The rapper’s mother struggled a lot after her divorce from Lil Pump’s father. It was hard for her to care about her kids as a single parent. Soon she met another man and tied a knot with him.
She is Colombian, too. She had troubled relationships with her son Gazzy in his teens, because he got used to smoking weeds since the 6th grade at school and a year later he was expelled from school for it. It’s not known, whether she supports her son in what he is making or not.
