Stevie J owes $1.1 million in back child support for his son and daughter, aged 18 and 17 respectively, as of 2014. He was originally supposed to pay about $8,557 per month for both children, and still owes money.
A judge presiding over the case ordered that it go to trial, leaving the New York native to call “bulls—t.”
“...I understand the prosecutors are doing their job, but I’m a great father and I take care of my kids. For the record, I provided everything that they needed.”

Despite it all, Stevie said he was pleased to know the children of the mother who is suing him haven’t allowed the case to affect their relationship
On the bright side, he said, his rapport with his children remains in tact. The family went to the star-studded Bad Boy Reunion concert in New York City over the weekend.
As a member of production group The Hitmen, Stevie J was responsible for lots of the hits that were performed on the stage.
“I’m happy that my kids won’t let this case affect our relationship. They were with me all weekend, with their mom,” he said.
“We enjoyed the Puffy show, we all stayed in the hotel, chilled out as a family. Whatever it is, let the courts do what they have to do, but just let me come out the victor that I am.”
