fred sonic smith and patti smith have a son. and i just found out that he is superfox just like his pops
oh my god. anyway, he plays on tour with his moms who is 
but kinda cool that the family is tight & performing together.can you guys think of any offspring who are on on the same artistic path as their folks were and keeping the fire alive like a family heirloom thing? i read the led zeppelin reunion thread and i must say that having bonham's son play drums make it sound a lot less cringeworthy and more like an honorable tribute to his dad's memory.and i still can't believe that neneh cherry is don cherry's daughter.

the tragic nature of both their deaths is haunting to say the least
This guy is good. Better than his dad maybe. Not as good as his mom and aunt maybe. I think he has a sister that sings too.
June Carter
Anita Carter
Roseanne Cash
Carlene Carter
Efrin Zimbalist Jr was good in the FBI. Old old heads no the deal.
Isn't Commons dad somebody. Avante jazz blues.

?uestLove pointed out that the drummer in Rufus was Claire Fischers son. He's a big Ficher fan.
Robert Lockwood, though not flesh and blood.
Lucky Peterson
SUGGIE OTIS!
When Julian Lennon put his first (and last?) record out everyone said how he sounded just like his dad. Idiot Beatle fans thought he was the second coming. Pathetic.
I was better homies with Boz Scaggs' other son (RIP).
Or that she is sister to Eagle Eye Cherry (What were his parents thinking) who a big hit a couple of years ago. Dude looks like the bi-racialm Chris Cornell. Let me just be the first to say. I'm going HHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNGGGGGGRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

We had this discussion a while ago. If you want to get technical, Neneh Cherry is not Don Cherry's biological daughter. She is the daughter of Ahmadu Jarr, a percussionist from Sierra Leone who lived in Sweden (he plays on a lot of swedish jazz stuff). The swedish singer Titiyo is her sister. Eagle-Eye is the biological son of Don Cherry. But apparently Don raised them all from birth so Neneh took his name.
Stepdaughter
Did anyone mention Eazy E's son? He's a spitting image of his pop.
Maybe he had potential, but one[/b] mediocre record + all those post mortem releases. I just don't get it.
Olu Dara ----->Nas
The many Marleys
Liza Minelli
Kim Wilde
Bebel Gilberto
Nancy Sinatra
Natalie Cole
India Arie's father was an old ABA player. I forget the deal on Common's dad (maybe a jazz background, i dunno) but I'm pretty sure he wasn't a pro b-ball player
Ralph Simpson
oh, for real? that's wild, i never knew that. or maybe i did and just forgot... i am old, after all. anyway, it's still
Johnny Marr's boy, Nile. He's only 15 and is supposed to be pretty good.
Made me google. I did not know he was Berry Gordy's son.
The son of one of these dudes was a good friend, who's band I saw perform several times. But they were never particularly successful.
the man, the myth, the legend
not even
robert van winkle is not a cutie pie.
true. maybe i shouldn't have used 'offspring' but she was raised by him
Common... Nas... What's the difference.
Hey some of you all are listing people who just suck and are only working because they mommy or daddy was famous. Try to list more Suggie Otises and fewer Liza Minnellis.
Most of them are cool. A few of them are even very talented, eg Bobby McFerrin's son.
