#RoyWoodJr has joined the ongoing nepo baby conversation, defending nepotism as just a method one uses to pass down acquired tools, skills and resources to a new generation.
“I’ll say this, Black nepotism is different in that if your kid is not doing exactly what you do, is it nepotism or is it just the hookup?” Wood said while guest appearing on Ziwe’s talk show “
#Ziwe.” “Why is it nepotism if the person is rich, but like, if it’s a plumber and it’s like Jimmy & Sons Plumbing, no one gives a f—k that Jimmy and his sons are– in fact, you would rather it. You’d rather nepotism. Same s–t with food: this restaurant has been owned by four generations of motherf–ckers, why is that cool?”
At the time, the “Lonely Flowers” comedian shared that he “doesn’t know yet” if his son will be a nepo baby.
