Earlier today, a video was shared on social media of what appears to be Kirk Franklin going off on his estranged son.
Kerrion, the estranged son of Kirk Franklin, called out his dad nearly three years ago, saying his “sneaky” father tried to “kill him.” And now, he’s come back with proof of his dad’s hostility towards him. He posted a video that recorded a heated conversation between them with a long caption basically saying no father should speak to their child that way.
The leaked phone call apparently has the voice and words of the “Melodies from Heaven” hitmaker cursing during a rant towards his 33-year-old son. At one point, he threatens to put his “foot in the a**” and “break the neck” of his son.
Now Twitter is in a frenzy over the recording.
One user said, “the way Kirk franklin was cursing at his son in the video his inner Plies came out.”
Another denounced the behavior and actions of the legend. “I’m just gonna stay outta that Kirk Franklin cussing his don[sic] out discourse. My parents never spoke to me that way but then I NEVER would try disrespecting them either. If his son is grown, there can be a lot more we don’t know.”
And a third found a bit of humor in the whole mess. “They talking bout canceling Kirk Franking cause he cussed out his son. Yall aint never got cussed out by yo parents before?
Regardless of what the two are going through, hopefully, they can make amends and have a healthy relationship.
Have you ever cursed out your parents or been cursed out by them?

Until you’ve had an emotionally abusive parent you wouldn’t even begin to understand Kirk franklin’s son, and why he felt he had to record it. No one may have ever believed him. And people will still question “well what did you do?”

At first I was clutching my pearls. But as soon as Kirk Franklin's son said "I dare you. Shut the f@@k up!" All the sympathy just slid back over to Kirk. pic.twitter.com/dG5QducNUo
