Tom Doesn’t Love His Kid’s Rap Lyrics
It’s hell gettin’ old and not quite gettin’ all the stuff those kids are up to. Example: Tom Hanks admits he’s not the biggest fan of rap lyrics, including those of his son, Chet Haze (nee Chester Hanks) . “I can’t honestly say I love to hear some of the language in it but that’s not just his stuff, that’s a lot of other people’s as well,” Hank told the Daily News at the American Spirit Awards presented to Tom Brokaw and Hanks by the National World War II Museum on Tuesday. Haze, 24, has had his ups and downs (including a stint in rehab for cocaine addiction in 2014), but his dad still has his back. “What I love about my kid is that he’s doing it,” the “Captain Phillips†star said. “A lot of people sit around and wait for the phone to ring and wait for someone to invite them to do it and my kid has done it, he’s been doing it for six years.”
