Wale was scheduled to perform at the One Africa Music Fest at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center tonight, but had to cancel. He is currently at the hospital with his daughter.
The new dad took to Twitter to share his joy. “I never cried and smiled at the same time until today,” he wrote. “She so beautiful slim… She perfect.”
