Embattled singer Brian McKnight is embroiled in a vicious war of words with his children whom he called “evil” and the “products of sin.”


One of McKnight’s sons, Niko McKnight, clapped back at his estranged father while putting his “sins” on blast.


Despite the fact that Niko McKnight is going through chemotherapy in his continued battle with cancer, he decided to slide into The Shade Room’s comments section to flame his father on his moral failings.

“I’m evil???? That’s wild. The guy who used to make me clean his used c*ndoms out his bathroom at 15 before Lisa got home is calling me evil. Fashoooooo,” Niko wrote in a comment. He also said, “the guy who forged sigs [signatures] on our names is calling us evil fashoooooooo.”


Niko McKnight is responding to his father’s original post where he not only described his biological children as “evil,” but that he favored his stepdaughter over them.

“In order to live a life that you love, you have to get rid of the evil and the negativity – even if that evil and negativity is related [to you],” Brian McKnight said. 

A fan vehemently disagreed, telling McKnight how wrong he was.

“The same God that said ‘honor your father & mother’ also said ‘Children are a gift from the Lord; they are reward from him. … Your children are a reflection of the work & prayers & spirituality & moral compass that PARENTS POUR INTO KIDS. You disowned kids that you created & you are also against God but judgment day is between you & your maker so #carryon.”

McKnight responded to the fan, saying: “1. God wasn’t talking about children that are the product of sin which these are. 2. I didn’t raise them their mothers did. 3. Know the whole story before quoting the Bible. 4. Take your inaccurate negativity off of my page and try being happy.”

Brian McKnight’s ex-wife, Julie McKnight, felt compelled to enter the fray on social media, telling her ex-husband that he is behaving like a petulant child.

“They’re no good at not being the center of attention anymore. So when everybody pulls that away, it’s like a kid without candy who throws a tantrum…,” she said. Julie McKnight added that she is “so proud” to have reared them “predominantly on my own” with the help of friends and family.
