Alfonso is only the biological father to the rap artist but has since been the alcoholic dad who never stayed in touch with his family or got involved in his son’s business. The younger Moss stated once that he had made it this far without his father’s input and he intends to keep going forward without him.

The estranged dad once penned an open letter to his look-alike son stating how proud of him he was and how much of a great job Teresa and her husband did in raising him. Papa Moss explained how he was an alcoholic and not a junkie and how he already has regrets for not being in Shad’s life.
