Swizz Beatz celebrated a special milestone with his son, Kaseem Jr., on his 18th birthday by revealing that he has been accepted into New York University (NYU). The joyous moment was captured in a video shared on Swizz’s Instagram, where family members greeted Kaseem with NYU gear and congratulations.
As Kaseem entered the room, his mother Mashonda excitedly informed him, “So NYU reached out a couple days ago and they said that they saw your progress and how you finished out this year and they want you to join them this year.” The heartwarming announcement was a surprise, as Kaseem was unaware of his acceptance until that moment.
Swizz expressed his pride in the caption, writing, “This is what we all do it for in real life. Today we celebrate the 18th Bday of Kaseem JR. We also celebrated him going to NYU! The amazing part was he didn’t know he was accepted; we saved the news for his Bday.”
Swizz Beatz has a long-standing connection with NYU, having been named the first-ever Producer in Residence at the Clive Davis Department of Recorded Music in 2010. His commitment to education and mentorship has made him a respected figure in the music industry.
In addition to this personal milestone, Swizz Beatz has hinted at the return of Verzuz, the popular battle series he co-founded with Timbaland. After striking a deal with Elon Musk’s X, he shared a teaser on social media, stating, “2025 Loading,” indicating exciting developments ahead for the beloved series.
