Nick Cannon Gets Candid About Mariah Carey in Freestyle Called "Divorce Papers"

As rumors about his lengthy divorce from Mariah Carey continue to mount, Nick Cannon is responding in the best way he knows how: through music.

The 35-year-old dropped a freestyle called "Divorce Papers" on Thursday, in which he talks about the media's coverage of his relationship and how the split has affected their five-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe.

"When y'all need help/ y'all call me/ When I need help, y'all call TMZ/ and y'all believe everything that you see," he raps. "We single now but we really need to think about is how a child deals/ how a child feels/ because we got two and they brilliant for real/ resilient for real."

Despite the song's heartbreaking lyrics, Nick explains that he and Mariah are ultimately in a "great place" and trying to do what's best for their kids.

"[We're] diligently moving things along so we both can continue to be happy," he shares. "I am happy for her and all her new endeavors, both personal ones and professional ones. I sincerely hope the media doesn't once again try to manipulate my words or my purpose for releasing this…"
