Father’s Day is the perfect time to show appreciation for the men who balance parenting with presence, purpose, and undeniable swag. In the world of Black celebrity fathers, there’s no shortage of men who do just that and look fine as hell while doing it. Kendrick Lamar, known for his lyrical brilliance and low-key lifestyle, has no problem expressing (whether in interviews or songs) how he holds fatherhood in high regard. Usher, who often discusses how not having his father in his life pushes him to be the ultimate dad, exudes a mature, grounded energy that makes him all the more appealing. And, of course, there’s Drake, whose emotional openness and artistic legacy make his approach to fatherhood especially captivating. These men are not just attractive — they’re helping to redefine what it means to be cool, committed, and connected.
